HI folks:

     if from the call pass of z_swap, which with parameter,  

      do_swap(key.key, lock, 1);

    because is_spinlock is 1, so the lock would be released before invoke the actual switch function "arch_switch", 

which means there are nothing procteced the readyqueue of the scheduler, during the moment, if other cpus access the readyqueue, there would be a chance that

"_current" task be selected by other cpus before the register  context do the actual backup. so did this a bug?
