32/*******************************************************************************************
33 * This structure defines a local spinlock, that sequencializes all read or write accesses
34 * in a given cluster. A new access can only start after completion of the previous access,
35 * when the owner thread releases the lock. The lock has only two states: taken or free.
36 * The owner thread is registered in the spinlock_t structure, and the calling thread
37 * list of local spinlocks is updated.
38 *
39 * A spinlock can be accessed in three modes :
40 *
41 * - The spinlock_lock() function is BLOCKING and use a descheduling policy when the lock
42 *   is already taken. The lock must be released with the spinlock_unlock() function.
43 * - The spinlock_lock_noirq() function is BLOCKING, but uses a polling (busy-waiting)
44 *   policy if the lock is already taken. The IRQs can be disabled or not depending
45 *   on the irq_state argument. The lock must be released with the spinlock_unlock_noirq()
46 *   function.
47 * - The spinlock_trylock() function is NON-BLOCKING, and tries only once to take the lock.
48 *   It must be released with the spinlock_unlock() function.
