    sched, inotify: Deal with nested sleeps · e23738a7
    Peter Zijlstra 提交于
    inotify_read is a wait loop with sleeps in. Wait loops rely on
    task_struct::state and sleeps do too, since that's the only means of
    actually sleeping. Therefore the nested sleeps destroy the wait loop
    state and the wait loop breaks the sleep functions that assume
    TASK_RUNNING (mutex_lock).
    
    Fix this by using the new woken_wake_function and wait_woken() stuff,
    which registers wakeups in wait and thereby allows shrinking the
    task_state::state changes to the actual sleep part.
