Looked through the commit again but it really doesn't change fast
paths. The only paths which can be slower are ioc and q exits. Can
you please do the followings?

* Share the script used for microbench. Maybe it somehow exposes
slower exit path? How much regression are we talking about?

* Test with the this_q != locked_q trylock patch.

Thanks.
