ipc/sem: rework task wakeups
Our sysv sems have been using the notion of lockless wakeups for a while, ever since commit 0a2b9d4c ("ipc/sem.c: move wake_up_process out of the spinlock section"), in order to reduce the sem_lock hold times. This in-house pending queue can be replaced by wake_q (just like all the rest of ipc now), in that it provides the following advantages: o Simplifies and gets rid of unnecessary code. o We get rid of the IN_WAKEUP complexities. Given that wake_q_add() grabs reference to the task, if awoken due to an unrelated event, between the wake_q_add() and wake_up_q() window, we cannot race with sys_exit and the imminent call to wake_up_process(). o By not spinning IN_WAKEUP, we no longer need to disable preemption. In consequence, the wakeup paths (after schedule(), that is) must acknowledge an external signal/event, as well spurious wakeup occurring during the pending wakeup window. Obviously no changes in semantics that could be visible to the user. The fastpath is _only_ for when we know for sure that we were awoken due to a the waker's successful semop call (queue.status is not -EINTR).
