Rolling your own lock is tricky, and needs review from the locking maintainers. And probably some more documentation as to what is happening and why our normal types of locks can't be used here?
Definitely. (Unfortunately this hasn't gotten attention from any locking maintainer yet since your last call for review; not sure if there's anything I can do there.)
You only seem to have cc:ed one of the "LOCKING PRIMITIVES" maintainers on this patchset, not all of them, which might be the reason why it has been ignored :(
Perhaps change that for the next version of this patchset?
