ipc/sem.c: Fix missing wakeups in do_smart_update_queue()
do_smart_update_queue() is called when an operation (semop, semctl(SETVAL), semctl(SETALL), ...) modified the array. It must check which of the sleeping tasks can proceed. do_smart_update_queue() missed a few wakeups: - if a sleeping complex op was completed, then all per-semaphore queues must be scanned - not only those that were modified by *sops - if a sleeping simple op proceeded, then the global queue must be scanned again And: - the test for "|sops == NULL) before scanning the global queue is not required: If the global queue is empty, then it doesn't need to be scanned - regardless of the reason for calling do_smart_update_queue() The patch is not optimized, i.e. even completing a wait-for-zero operation causes a rescan. This is done to keep the patch as simple as possible.
