+  # Re-entrant read-write lock implementation
+  #
+  # Allows any number of concurrent readers, but only one concurrent writer
+  # (And while the "write" lock is taken, no read locks can be obtained either.
+  # Hence, the write lock can also be called an "exclusive" lock.)
+  #
+  # If another thread has taken a read lock, any thread which wants a write lock
+  # will block until all the readers release their locks. However, once a thread
+  # starts waiting to obtain a write lock, any additional readers that come along
+  # will also wait (so writers are not starved).
+  #
+  # A thread can acquire both a read and write lock at the same time. A thread can
+  # also acquire a read lock OR a write lock more than once. Only when the read (or
+  # write) lock is released as many times as it was acquired, will the thread
+  # actually let it go, allowing other threads which might have been waiting
+  # to proceed. Therefore the lock can be upgraded by first acquiring
+  # read lock and then write lock and that the lock can be downgraded by first
+  # having both read and write lock a releasing just the write lock.
+  #
+  # If both read and write locks are acquired by the same thread, it is not strictly
+  # necessary to release them in the same order they were acquired. In other words,
+  # the following code is legal:
+  #
+  # @example
+  #   lock = Concurrent::ReentrantReadWriteLock.new
+  #   lock.acquire_write_lock
+  #   lock.acquire_read_lock
+  #   lock.release_write_lock
+  #   # At this point, the current thread is holding only a read lock, not a write
+  #   # lock. So other threads can take read locks, but not a write lock.
+  #   lock.release_read_lock
+  #   # Now the current thread is not holding either a read or write lock, so
+  #   # another thread could potentially acquire a write lock.
+  #
+  # This implementation was inspired by `java.util.concurrent.ReentrantReadWriteLock`.
+  #
+  # @example
+  #   lock = Concurrent::ReentrantReadWriteLock.new

+    # A goal is to make the uncontended path for both readers/writers mutex-free

+    # Otherwise, a single CAS operation is all we need to acquire/release a lock

+    # The counter is increased by (1 << 15) for each writer waiting to acquire the
+    #   write lock, and by (1 << 29) if the write lock is taken
+    #
+    # Additionally, each thread uses a thread-local variable to count how many times
+    #   it has acquired a read lock, AND how many times it has acquired a write lock.
+    # It uses a similar trick; an increment of 1 means a read lock was taken, and
+    #   an increment of (1 << 15) means a write lock was taken
+    # This is what makes re-entrancy possible
+    #
+    # 2 rules are followed to ensure good liveness properties:
+    # 1) Once a writer has queued up and is waiting for a write lock, no other thread
+    #    can take a lock without waiting
+    # 2) When a write lock is released, readers are given the "first chance" to wake
