JDK-8325587 made the contended lock acquisition as the CAS loop with backoffs. Unfortunately, for `SpinPause` path, we always do the CAS and then spin. This is not efficient, as CAS likely requests memory for ownership, which exacerbates the contention and makes the spin loop run longer before blocking.
We should really use TTAS pattern there, like `Thread::SpinAcquire` does it.
Additional testing:
- [x] Linux AArch64 server fastdebug, `hotspot_gc_shenandoah`
- [ ] Linux AArch64 server fastdebug, `all` with `-XX:+UseShenandoahGC`
