In up_write()/up_read(), rwsem_wake() will be called whenever it detects that some writers/readers are waiting. The rwsem_wake() function will take the wait_lock and call __rwsem_do_wake() to do the real wakeup. For a heavily contended rwsem, doing a spin_lock() on wait_lock will cause further contention on the heavily contended rwsem cacheline resulting in delay in the completion of the up_read/up_write operations. This patch makes the wait_lock taking and the call to __rwsem_do_wake() optional if at least one spinning writer is present. The spinning writer will be able to take the rwsem and call rwsem_wake() later when it calls up_write(). With the presence of a spinning writer, rwsem_wake() will now try to acquire the lock using trylock. If that fails, it will just quit.
