I still would like to see a reproducer for this.

I am vehemently opposed to that. We should work towards getting rid of
spinlocks, not introduce more versions of spinlocks. Userspace spinlocks
largely are a bad idea. We should instead make properly queued locks cheaper
(e.g. by having an exclusive-only lock, which can be cheaper to release on
common platforms).
