/*******************************************************************************************
 * This synchronisation object sequencializes concurrent read or write accesses to a
 * globally shared object located in any cluster, made by thread(s) running in any cluster.
 * This lock has only two states: taken or free.
 * When the lock has been taken by another thread T', the thread T executing the
 * queuelock_acquire() function blocks and deschedules, after registering in the waiting
 * queue rooted in lock descriptor. The first thread in the waiting queue will be unblocked 
 * by the owner thread executing the queuelock_release() function.
 * To handle concurrent accesses between a thread T executing the acquire() function
 * and a thread T' executing the release() function, the "remote_queuelock" is protected
 * by a "remote_busylock" used by these two access functions.
 * WARNING: this remote_queuelock is NOT registered in the thread "remote_locks" field.
