// The m->locked word holds a single bit saying whether
// external calls to LockOSThread are in effect, and then a counter
// of the internal nesting depth of lockOSThread / unlockOSThread.
// The m->locked word holds two pieces of state counting active calls to LockOSThread/lockOSThread.
// The low bit (LockExternal) is a boolean reporting whether any LockOSThread call is active.
// External locks are not recursive; a second lock is silently ignored.
// The upper bits of m->lockedcount record the nesting depth of calls to lockOSThread
// (counting up by LockInternal), popped by unlockOSThread (counting down by LockInternal).
// Internal locks can be recursive. For instance, a lock for cgo can occur while the main
// goroutine is holding the lock during the initialization phase.
