 About rw_lock priority propagation locking(9) tells:
 The rw_lock locks have priority propagation like mutexes, but priority 
 can be propagated only to an exclusive holder.  This limitation comes 
 from the fact that shared owners are anonymous.
 
 What's about idle stealing threshold, it was fixed in HEAD at r239194, 
 but wasn't merged yet. It should be trivial to merge it.
