Thx for the review, that's very helpful.

Ok.

Ok, but I'll modify it in next commit.

There is a lock irq instruction "idly4" with out irq_save. eg:
asm volatile ( \
" idly4 \n" \
" ldw %0, (%2) \n" \
" " #op " %0, %1 \n" \
" stw %0, (%2) \n" \
I'll change to that after full tested.

read_lock and write_lock also needn't smp_mb() before, isn't it?

read_unlock and write_unlock also needn't smp_mb() after, isn't it?

I'm not sure about queued_rwlocks and just for 2-cores-smp test-and-set is
faster and simpler, isn't it?
