+ * Implementation: user-space maintains a per-thread list of locks it

+ * and marks all locks that are owned by this thread with the
+ * FUTEX_OWNER_DEAD bit, and wakes up a waiter (if any). The list is
+ * always manipulated with the lock held, so the list is private and

+ * acquiring the lock, but just before it could have added itself to
+ * the list. There can only be one such pending lock.
