	 * We loop tightly for awhile, then delay using pg_usleep() and try again.
	 * Preferably, "awhile" should be a small multiple of the maximum time we
	 * expect a spinlock to be held.  100 iterations seems about right as an
	 * initial guess.  However, on a uniprocessor the loop is a waste of
	 * cycles, while in a multi-CPU scenario it's usually better to spin a bit
	 * longer than to call the kernel, so we try to adapt the spin loop count
	 * depending on whether we seem to be in a uniprocessor or multiprocessor.
	 *
	 * Note: you might think MIN_SPINS_PER_DELAY should be just 1, but you'd
	 * be wrong; there are platforms where that can result in a "stuck
	 * spinlock" failure.  This has been seen particularly on Alphas; it seems
	 * that the first TAS after returning from kernel space will always fail
	 * on that hardware.
	 *
	 * Once we do decide to block, we use randomly increasing pg_usleep()
	 * delays. The first delay is 1 msec, then the delay randomly increases to
	 * about one second, after which we reset to 1 msec and start again.  The
	 * idea here is that in the presence of heavy contention we need to
	 * increase the delay, else the spinlock holder may never get to run and
	 * release the lock.  (Consider situation where spinlock holder has been
	 * nice'd down in priority by the scheduler --- it will not get scheduled
	 * until all would-be acquirers are sleeping, so if we always use a 1-msec
	 * sleep, there is a real possibility of starvation.)  But we can't just
	 * clamp the delay to an upper bound, else it would take a long time to
	 * make a reasonable number of tries.
	 *
	 * We time out and declare error after NUM_DELAYS delays (thus, exactly
	 * that many tries).  With the given settings, this will usually take 2 or
	 * so minutes.	It seems better to fix the total number of tries (and thus
	 * the probability of unintended failure) than to fix the total time
	 * spent.
	 *
	 * The pg_usleep() delays are measured in milliseconds because 1 msec is a
	 * common resolution limit at the OS level for newer platforms. On older
	 * platforms the resolution limit is usually 10 msec, in which case the
	 * total delay before timeout will be a bit more.
