The backoff from delayed retry in conjunction with spin looping of lock itself can potentially cause the delay counter to reach high values. So to provide fairness to any lock operation, after a lock "seems" available (i.e. just before first SCOND try0, reset the delay counter back to starting value of 1 Essentially reset delay to 1 for a new spin-wait-loop-acquire cycle.
