       The  pthread_spin_unlock()  function  shall release the spin lock referenced by lock which was locked via
       the pthread_spin_lock() or pthread_spin_trylock() functions.

       The results are undefined if the lock is not held by the calling thread.

       If there are threads spinning on  the  lock  when  pthread_spin_unlock()  is  called,  the  lock  becomes
       available and an unspecified spinning thread shall acquire the lock.

       The results are undefined if this function is called with an uninitialized thread spin lock.

       This function shall not return an error code of [EINTR].

       pthread_spin_unlock — unlock a spin lock object

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

       If an implementation detects that the value specified by the lock argument to pthread_spin_unlock()  does
       not  refer to an initialized spin lock object, it is recommended that the function should fail and report
       an [EINVAL] error.

       If an implementation detects that the value specified  by  the  lock  argument  to  pthread_spin_unlock()
       refers  to a spin lock object for which the current thread does not hold the lock, it is recommended that
       the function should fail and report an [EPERM] error.

       Upon  successful  completion,  the  pthread_spin_unlock() function shall return zero; otherwise, an error
       number shall be returned to indicate the error.
