This looks racy, consider:

        atomic_read(all_hints) /* 0 */

                                spin_lock(wait_all_lock)
                                atomic_inc(all_hint)    /* 1 */
                                list_add_tail()

        spin_lock(sem->lock)
        /* try_wake_all_obj() missing */




I've not yet thought about if this is harmful or not, but if not, it
definitely needs a comment.

Anyway, I need a break, maybe more this evening.
