Peter Zijlstra (Intel) 69f9cae909 locking/qspinlock: Optimize for smaller NR_CPUS 
When we allow for a max NR_CPUS < 2^14 we can optimize the pending
wait-acquire and the xchg_tail() operations.

By growing the pending bit to a byte, we reduce the tail to 16bit.
This means we can use xchg16 for the tail part and do away with all
the repeated compxchg() operations.

This in turn allows us to unconditionally acquire; the locked state
as observed by the wait loops cannot change. And because both locked
and pending are now a full byte we can use simple stores for the
state transition, obviating one atomic operation entirely.

This optimization is needed to make the qspinlock achieve performance
parity with ticket spinlock at light load.

All this is horribly broken on Alpha pre EV56 (and any other arch that
cannot do single-copy atomic byte stores).
