The core idea of your current patch hasn't changed from your previous patch.
My comment is that you should not attempt to sell it as a replacement of the current spinlock mechanism. I just don't see that will happen given the change in API semantics. Also, I think there are probably cases that your patch cannot be applied. So treat it as a separate synchronization mechanism that can be useful in some scenarios.
