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.
