New version..
This one seems to pass all the (pi) futex tests and survives many hours
of my modified pi_stress (I added MADV_UNMAP to punch holes in the
page-tables to trigger (minor) faults).

Subject: futex: Rewrite FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI
From: Peter Zijlstra <pet...@infradead.org>
Date: Sun Oct 2 18:42:33 CEST 2016
There's a number of 'interesting' problems with FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI, all
caused by holding hb->lock while doing the rt_mutex_unlock()
equivalient.
Notably:
- a PI inversion on hb->lock
- DL crash because of pointer instability.
This patch doesn't attempt to fix any of the actual problems, but
instead reworks the code to not hold hb->lock across the unlock,
paving the way to actually fix the problems later.
The current reason we hold hb->lock over unlock is that it serializes
against FUTEX_LOCK_PI and avoids new waiters from coming in, this then
ensures the rt_mutex_next_owner() value is stable and can be written
into the user-space futex value before doing the unlock. Such that the
unlock will indeed end up at new_owner.
This patch recognises that holding rt_mutex::wait_lock results in the
very same guarantee, no new waiters can come in while we hold that
lock -- after all, waiters would need this lock to queue themselves.
This (of course) is not entirely straight forward either, see the
comment in rt_mutex_slowunlock(), doing the unlock itself might drop
wait_lock, letting new waiters in.
Another problem is the case where futex_lock_pi() failed to acquire
the lock (ie. released rt_mutex::wait_lock) but hasn't yet re-acquired
hb->lock and called unqueue_me_pi(). In this case we're confused about
having waiters (the futex state says yes, the rt_mutex state says no).
The current solution is to assign the futex to the waiter from the
futex state, and have futex_lock_pi() detect this and try and fix it
up. This again, all relies on hb->lock serializing things.
Solve all that by:
- using futex specific rt_mutex calls that lack the fastpath, futexes
have their own fastpath anyway. This makes that
rt_mutex_futex_unlock() doesn't need to drop rt_mutex::wait_lock
and the unlock is guaranteed if we manage to update user state.
- make futex_unlock_pi() drop hb->lock early and only use
rt_mutex::wait_lock to serialize against rt_mutex waiters
update the futex value and unlock.
- in case futex and rt_mutex disagree on waiters, side with rt_mutex
and simply clear the user value. This works because either there
really are no waiters left, or futex_lock_pi() triggers the
lock-steal path and fixes up the WAITERS flag.
