Jeff Brown 9604987289 Reduce lock thrashing in native Looper.
In the common case, there is nothing interesting happening on the native
Looper besides occasional wake ups.  There is no point grabbing the
semaphore then.

Android Utility Function Library

If you need a feature that is native to Linux but not present on other
platforms, construct a platform-dependent implementation that shares
the Linux interface.  That way the actual device runs as "light" as
possible.

If that isn't feasible, create a system-independent interface and hide
the details.

The ultimate goal is *not* to create a super-duper platform abstraction
layer.  The goal is to provide an optimized solution for Linux with
reasonable implementations for other platforms.
