Yeah, that's what Michal's patch ontop does.
And to answer my own question: we need the "a" (sem) input for the fast
path.
I guess we can still move "1" (RWSEM_ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS) before the asm():
long tmp = RWSEM_ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS;
One thing I'm still not clear on is why we need the output tmp operand:
"=d" (tmp) ?
