[PATCH] pi-futex: missing pi_waiters plist initialization
Initialize init task's pi_waiters plist. Otherwise cpu hotplug of cpu 0
might crash, since rt_mutex_getprio() accesses an uninitialized list head.
call chain which led to crash:
take_cpu_down
sched_idle_next
__setscheduler
rt_mutex_getprio
Using PLIST_HEAD_INIT in the INIT_TASK macro doesn't work unfortunately,
since the pi_waiters member is only conditionally present.
