osq lock maintainers don't want it to be used outside of kernel/locking/
- but, we can do better.
Since we have lock handoff signalled via waitlist entries, there's no
reason for optimistic spinning to have to look at the lock at all -
aside from checking lock-owner; we can just spin looking at our waitlist
entry.

- Expanded and revamped overview documentation in six.h, giving an
overview of all features
- docbook-comments for all external interfaces
- Rename some functions for simplicity, i.e.
six_lock_ip_type() -> six_lock_ip()

As suggested by Linus, this drops the six_lock_state union in favor of
raw bitmasks.
On the one hand, bitfields give more type-level structure to the code.
However, a significant amount of the code was working with
six_lock_state as a u64/atomic64_t, and the conversions from the
bitfields to the u64 were deemed a bit too out-there.
More significantly, because bitfield order is poorly defined (#ifdef
__LITTLE_ENDIAN_BITFIELD can be used, but is gross), incrementing the
sequence number would overflow into the rest of the bitfield if the
compiler didn't put the sequence number at the high end of the word.
The new code is a bit saner when we're on an architecture without real
atomic64_t support - all accesses to lock->state now go through
atomic64_*() operations.
On architectures with real atomic64_t support, we additionally use
atomic bit ops for setting/clearing individual bits.
Text size: 7467 bytes -> 4649 bytes - compilers still suck at
bitfields.

Originally, we used inlining/flattening to cause the compiler to
generate different versions of lock/trylock/relock/unlock for each lock
type - read, intent, and write. This made the individual functions
smaller and let the compiler eliminate table lookups: however, as the
code has gotten more complicated these optimizations have gotten less
worthwhile, and all the tricky inlining and dispatching made the code
less readable.
Text size: 11015 bytes -> 7467 bytes, and benchmarks show no loss of
performance.

six_lock_pcpu_alloc() is an unsafe interface: it's not safe to allocate
or free the percpu reader count on an existing lock that's in use, the
only safe time to allocate percpu readers is when the lock is first
being initialized.
This patch adds a flags parameter to six_lock_init(), and instead of
six_lock_pcpu_free() we now expose six_lock_exit(), which does the same
thing but is less likely to be misused.

This moves a helper out of the bcachefs code that shouldn't have been
there, since it touches six lock internals.

This adds a threshold for the maximum spin time, similar to the rwsem
code, and a flag to the lock itself indicating when we've spun too long
so other threads also refrain from spinning.

This adds _ip variations of the various lock functions that allow an IP
to be passed in, which is used by lockstat.

This brings back an important optimization, to avoid touching the wait
lists an extra time, while preserving the property that a thread is on a
lock waitlist iff it is waiting - it is never removed from the waitlist
until it has the lock.

This is needed by the cycle detector in bcachefs - we need a way to
iterater over waitlist entries while dropping and retaking the waitlist
lock.

This switches to a single list of waiters, instead of separate lists for
read and intent, and switches write locks to also use the wait lists
instead of being handled differently.
Also, removal from the wait list is now done by the process waiting on
the lock, not the process doing the wakeup. This is needed for the new
deadlock cycle detector - we need tasks to stay on the waitlist until
they've successfully acquired the lock.

six_lock_count now counts up whether a write lock held, and this patch
now also correctly counts six_lock->intent_lock_recurse.
