On a VM with only 1 vCPU, the locking fast paths will always be successful. In this case, there is no need to use the the PV qspinlock code which has higher overhead on the unlock side than the native qspinlock code. The xen_pvspin veriable is also turned off in this 1 vCPU case to eliminate unneeded pvqspinlock initialization in xen_init_lock_cpu() which is run after xen_init_spinlocks().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
