+ * swait_active -- locklessly test for waiters on the queue
+ * @wq: the waitqueue to test for waiters
+ *
+ * returns true if the wait list is not empty
+ *
+ * NOTE: this function is lockless and requires care, incorrect usage _will_
+ * lead to sporadic and non-obvious failure.
+ *
+ * NOTE2: this function has the same above implications as regular waitqueues.
+ *
+ * Use either while holding swait_queue_head::lock or when used for wakeups
+ * with an extra smp_mb() like:
+ *
+ * CPU0 - waker CPU1 - waiter
+ *
+ * for (;;) {
+ * @cond = true; prepare_to_swait(&wq_head, &wait, state);
+ * smp_mb(); // smp_mb() from set_current_state()
+ * if (swait_active(wq_head)) if (@cond)
+ * wake_up(wq_head); break;
+ * schedule();
+ * }
+ * finish_swait(&wq_head, &wait);
+ *
+ * Because without the explicit smp_mb() it's possible for the
+ * swait_active() load to get hoisted over the @cond store such that we'll
+ * observe an empty wait list while the waiter might not observe @cond.
+ * This, in turn, can trigger missing wakeups.
+ *
+ * Also note that this 'optimization' trades a spin_lock() for an smp_mb(),
+ * which (when the lock is uncontended) are of roughly equal cost.
