Sorry for the late reply; I've been swamped and am behind on my upstream mail.

I believe this should be spin_unlock(&sem->lock) instead ?

Do we have to lock every sem from the array instead of just the ones
that are being operated on in sops ?
(I'm not sure either way, as I don't fully understand the queueing of
complex ops)

If we want to keep the loop as is, then we may at least remove the
sops argument to sem_lock() since we only care about nsops.

That's all I have. Very nice test results BTW!
