Subject: [PATCH 09/12] locking/qspinlock: Use smp_cond_load_relaxed() to wait for next node
Git-commit: c131a198c497db436b558ac5e9a140cdcb91b304
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: bsc#1050549

When a locker reaches the head of the queue and takes the lock, a
concurrent locker may enqueue and force the lock holder to spin
whilst its node->next field is initialised. Rather than open-code
a READ_ONCE/cpu_relax() loop, this can be implemented using
smp_cond_load_relaxed() instead.
