looks really nice to me.
To me, in addition to the number of times the lock is contended we also
need the total number of times the lock was acquired, to make the
statistics significant. I've included one such patch below, which also
introduces a 'event', thiking of things like lock timings that were
mentioned, but this is not necessary.
thanks,
