  35.  * @brief   Reader/Writer locks.
  36.  *
  37.  * A reader/writer lock can be held by multiple readers at a time.
  38.  * Or it can be exclusively held by a sole writer at a time.
  39.  *
  40.  * These locks are not recursive.
  41.  * Because a technique called direct hand-off is used and because
  42.  * waiting takes place in a single wait queue, neither readers
  43.  * nor writers will suffer starvation.
  44.  *
  45.  * If there is a writer followed by a reader waiting for the rwlock
  46.  * and the writer times out, all leading readers are automatically woken up
  47.  * and allowed in.

  53.  * to the respective value depending whether the caller is a reader
  54.  * or a writer. The field is examined only if the thread had been
  55.  * previously blocked on the exclusive mutex. Thus it is save
  56.  * to store the rwlock type in the thread structure, because
  57.  * each thread can block on only one rwlock at a time.
