pgsql: Micro optimize LWLockAttemptLock() a bit. - Mailing list pgsql-committers

Micro optimize LWLockAttemptLock() a bit.

LWLockAttemptLock pointlessly read the lock's state in every loop
iteration, even though pg_atomic_compare_exchange_u32() returns the old
value. Instead do that only once before the loop iteration.

Additionally there's no need to have the expected_state variable,
old_state mostly had the same value anyway.
