+/* Wrap a Win32 manual-reset event with a fast userspace path.  The idea
+ * is to reset the Win32 event lazily, as part of a test-reset-test-wait
+ * sequence.  Such a sequence is, indeed, how QemuEvents are used by
+ * RCU and other subsystems!
+ *
+ * Valid transitions:
+ * - free->set, when setting the event
+ * - busy->set, when setting the event, followed by futex_wake
+ * - set->free, when resetting the event
+ * - free->busy, when waiting
+ *
+ * set->busy does not happen (it can be observed from the outside but
+ * it really is set->free->busy).
+ *
+ * busy->free provably cannot happen; to enforce it, the set->free transition
+ * is done with an OR, which becomes a no-op if the event has concurrently
+ * transitioned to free or busy (and is faster than cmpxchg).
