Also, can someone please explain how the thread could in the ready state while the node is in a scheduled state in this <https://git.rtems.org/rtems/tree/cpukit/include/rtems/score/schedulersmpimpl.h#n1517> conditional block ?
The MrsP locking protocol performs busy waiting will a thread is blocked. The busy waiting is carried out by idle threads.
In the referenced conditional block, the thread is ready to execute again and its scheduler node is scheduled. In this case, it uses an idle thread to perform the busy wait. So, we have to get rid of the idle thread and use the node for its own thread.
