Public Member Functions
void	lock () noexcept
	Takes the lock, blocking if necessary.
void	unlock () noexcept
	Releases the lock, this should only be called after a successful call to try_lock or lock.
bool	try_lock () noexcept
	Attempts to take the lock once, returning true if successful.

Detailed Description

A basic spin lock that uses an atomic_flag to store the locked state so should never result in a system call.

Note that only try_lock should be called from a real-time thread. If you can't take the lock you should exit quickly.
