Three fixlets for long standing issues in the futex/rtmutex code
unearthed by Dave Jones syscall fuzzer:
- Add missing early deadlock detection checks in the futex code
- Prevent user space from attaching a futex to kernel threads
- Make the deadlock detector of rtmutex work again
Looks large, but is more comments than code change.
Thanks,
tglx

Thomas Gleixner (3):
futex: Add another early deadlock detection check
futex: Prevent attaching to kernel threads
rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for real
