3.2.64-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> commit 13c42c2f43b19aab3195f2d357db00d1e885eaa8 upstream. futex_wait_requeue_pi() calls futex_wait_setup(). If futex_wait_setup() succeeds it returns with hb->lock held and preemption disabled. Now the sanity check after this does: if (match_futex(&q.key, &key2)) { ret = -EINVAL; goto out_put_keys; } which releases the keys but does not release hb->lock. So we happily return to user space with hb->lock held and therefor preemption disabled. Unlock hb->lock before taking the exit route.
