ck_pr_stall — busy-wait primitive

Description

       The  ck_pr_stall(3) function should be used inside retry paths of busy-wait loops.  It not only serves as
       a compiler barrier, but on some architectures it emits cycle-saving instructions.

Example

             #include <ck_pr.h>

             static int ready = 0;

             void
             function(void)
             {

                     /* Busy-wait until ready is non-zero. */
                     while (ck_pr_load_int(&ready) == 0)
                             ck_pr_stall();

                     return;
             }
