4  * Reader/writer consistent mechanism without starving writers. This type of
5  * lock for data where the reader wants a consistent set of information
6  * and is willing to retry if the information changes.  Readers never
7  * block but they may have to retry if a writer is in
8  * progress. Writers do not wait for readers. 
9  *
10  * This is not as cache friendly as brlock. Also, this will not work
11  * for data that contains pointers, because any writer could
12  * invalidate a pointer that a reader was following.
13  *
14  * Expected reader usage:
15  *      do {
16  *          seq = read_seqbegin(&foo);
17  *      ...
18  *      } while (read_seqretry(&foo, seq));
19  *
20  *
21  * On non-SMP the spin locks disappear but the writer still needs
22  * to increment the sequence variables because an interrupt routine could
23  * change the state of the data.
24  *
25  * Based on x86_64 vsyscall gettimeofday
