futex: unlock before returning -EFAULT
Impact: rt-mutex failure case fix futex_lock_pi can potentially return -EFAULT with the rt_mutex held. This seems like the wrong thing to do as userspace should assume -EFAULT means the lock was not taken. Even if it could figure this out, we'd be leaving the pi_state->owner in an inconsistent state. This patch unlocks the rt_mutex prior to returning -EFAULT to userspace. Build and boot tested on a 4 way Intel x86_64 workstation. Passes basic pthread_mutex and PI tests out of ltp/testcases/realtime. Signed-off-by:Darren Hart <dvhltc@us.ibm.com> Acked-by:
