Add a fast path for C rd/wrlock v2
One difference of the C versions to the assembler wr/rdlock is that the C compiler saves some registers which are unnecessary for the fast path in the prologue of the functions. Split the uncontended fast path out into a separate function. Only when contention is detected is the full featured function called. This makes the fast path code (nearly) identical to the assembler version, and gives uncontended performance within a few cycles. v2: Rename some functions and add space.
