[PATCH 03/11] qspinlock: Add pending bit

Then why even do the pending bit - which is what the slowpath does
for the first time. And if it grabs it (And sets the pending bit) it
immediately exits. Why not perculate that piece of code in-to this header.
And the leave all that slow code (queing, mcs_lock access, etc) in the slowpath.

Installing xfce on CentOS 5.3?
I would like to install xfce from the "extras" repo - but when I run:
yum groupinstall XFCE-4.4
I get:
Warning: Group XFCE-4.4 does not exist.
Also 'yum grouplist' appears to only show the base groups ...
Is there anything else I have to do to install xfce?
Thanks

Could you add this in the description please:
And by second cacheline we mean the local 'node'. That is the:
mcs_nodes[0] and mcs_nodes[idx]
Perhaps it might be
