Fixed patch below. With this the series seems to survive hackbench.

+ * In particular; where the traditional MCS lock consists of a tail pointer

+ * unlock the next pending (next->locked), we compress both these: {tail,
+ * next->locked} into a single u32 value.
+ *
+ * Since a spinlock disables recursion of its own context and there is a limit
+ * to the contexts that can nest; namely: task, softirq, hardirq, nmi, we can
+ * encode the tail as and index indicating this context and a cpu number.
+ *
+ * We can further change the first spinner to spin on a bit in the lock word
+ * instead of its node; whereby avoiding the need to carry a node from lock to
