4.2.8-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Romain Perier <[email protected]> commit fba7cd681b6155e2d93e7862fcd6f970336b83c3 upstream. The recent decoupling of pagefault disable and preempt disable added an explicit preempt_disable/enable() pair to the futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implementation in asm-generic/futex.h. But it forgot to add preempt_enable() calls to the error handling code pathes, which results in a preemption count imbalance. This is observable on boot when the test for atomic_cmpxchg() is calling futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() on a NULL pointer. Add the missing preempt_enable() calls to the error handling code pathes.
