Sure, the way the pending not-queued slowpath (which I guess is the
medium-path) is implemented is just poorly structured for LL/SC. It
has one more atomic than necessary (queued_fetch_set_pending_acquire),
and a lot of branches in suboptimal order.
Attached patch (completely untested just compiled and looked at asm
so far) is a way we can fix this on powerpc I think. It's actually
very little generic code change which is good, duplicated medium-path
logic unfortunately but that's no worse than something like x86
really.

Nice, yeah it should be. I've wanted this for ages!
powerpc is kind of annoying to implement that with limited call range,
Hmm, not sure if we'd need a new linker feature to support it. We'd
provide call site patch space for indirect branches for those out of
range of direct call, so that should work fine. The trick would be
patching in the TOC lookup for the function... should be doable somehow.
Thanks,
Nick
