While reviewing rwsem down_slowpath, Will noticed ldsem had a copy of
a bug we just found for rwsem.
X = 0;
CPU0 CPU1
rwsem_down_read()
for (;;) {
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
X = 1;
rwsem_up_write();
rwsem_mark_wake()
atomic_long_add(adjustment, &sem->count);
smp_store_release(&waiter->task, NULL);
if (!waiter.task)
break;
...
}
r = X;
Allows 'r == 0'.
