Rather than propagating the CPU number of the preempted lock owner, just propagate whether the owner was preempted. Waiters must read the lock value when yielding to it to prevent races anyway, so might as well always load the owner CPU from the lock. To further simplify the code, also don't propagate the -1 (or sleepy=false in the new scheme) down the queue. Instead, have the waiters clear it themselves when finding the lock owner is not preempted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
