3.19.8-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Sasha Levin <[email protected]>

commit 119d6f6a3be8b424b200dcee56e74484d5445f7e upstream.

Because wakeups can (fundamentally) be late, a task might not be in
the expected state. Therefore testing against a task's state is racy,
and can yield false positives.
