generally speaking the patch is not correct as futex_wake() should
wakeup n waiters which is specified by user space. and i think that
futex_wake() is correct.
so we must take a close look at futex_requeue() and FUTEX_WAKE_OP.

is it fixes the problem for you? as the author of it I should to look
back to find the reason of using wakeup_one(). and check this patch on
nptl tests.

Patch for Linux Futexes
Hi,
When using the Linux Skype client under FreeBSD I sometimes see that the
Audio disappears in the one direction. When I check "ps auxw" I see
skype is stuck on a so-called Futex. I looked into the Linux futex code
and see that wakeup_one() is used instead of wakeup(). Maybe others can
test too and verify if replacing wakeup_one() by wakeup() makes any
difference in for Linux applications using Futexes.
