/*
* N.B. You most likely do _not_ want to use MicroSpinLock or any
* other kind of spinlock. Consider MicroLock instead.
*
* In short, spinlocks in preemptive multi-tasking operating systems
* have serious problems and fast mutexes like std::mutex are almost
* certainly the better choice, because letting the OS scheduler put a
* thread to sleep is better for system responsiveness and throughput
* than wasting a timeslice repeatedly querying a lock held by a
* thread that's blocked, and you can't prevent userspace
* programs blocking.
*
* Spinlocks in an operating system kernel make much more sense than
* they do in userspace.
