futex: Prevent inconsistent state and exit race
The recent rework of the requeue PI code introduced a possibility for going back to user space in inconsistent state: CPU 0 CPU 1 requeue_futex() if (lock_pifutex_user()) { dequeue_waiter(); wake_waiter(task); sched_in(task); return_from_futex_syscall(); ---> Inconsistent state because PI state is not established It becomes worse if the woken up task immediately exits: sys_exit(); attach_pistate(vpid); <--- FAIL Attach the pi state before dequeuing and waking the waiter. If the waiter gets a spurious wakeup before the dequeue operation it will wait in futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync() and therefore cannot return and exit.
