This is slower than using MCS lock directly because of the extra level of indirection causing more atomics to be used as well as 2 waiting threads spinning on the lock cacheline instead of only one. This patch change lock waiting code to use direct MCS lock/unlock for bare metal, but keep on using spinlock in VM guest to take advantage of the pvqspinlock and unfair lock functionality of the qspinlock code. With that patch, we saw further improvement in reader and writer performance on a Haswell-EX box using a locking microbenchmark.
