/* Technical note:
 *
 * Possible states of a read/write lock:
 *
 *  - no readers and no writer (unlocked)
 *  - one or more readers sharing the lock at the same time (read-locked)
 *  - one writer holding the lock (write-lock)
 *
 * Additionally:
 *  - trying to get the write-lock while there are any readers blocks
 *  - trying to get the read-lock while there is a writer blocks
 *  - a single thread can acquire the lock multiple times in read mode
 *
 *  - Posix states that behavior is undefined (may deadlock) if a thread tries
 *    to acquire the lock
 *      - in write mode while already holding the lock (whether in read or write mode)
 *      - in read mode while already holding the lock in write mode.
 *  - This implementation will return EDEADLK in "write after write" and "read after
 *    write" cases and will deadlock in write after read case.
 *
 * TODO: As it stands now, pending_readers and pending_writers could be merged into a
 * a single waiters variable.  Keeping them separate adds a bit of clarity and keeps
 * the door open for a writer-biased implementation.
