Going off in a tangent here. I gather this patches are the first steps
towards implementing busy locks in full.

If so then may I suggest, just in case you haven't had yet the
opportunity to look into, that the tengine distribution already has
implemented this, i.e., busy locks. There are several core modules
patched, namely event.

Perhaps this would speed up the process. Just an idea.
