We measure acquisition and contention bouncing.

This is done by recording a cpu stamp in each lock instance.

Contention bouncing requires the cpu stamp to be set on acquisition. Hence we
move __acquired into the generic path.

__acquired is then used to measure acquisition bouncing by comparing the
current cpu with the old stamp before replacing it.

__contended is used to measure contention bouncing (only useful for preemptable
locks)
