[PATCH v2] ipc: introduce ipc_valid_object() helper to sort out IPC_RMID races
From: Rafael Aquini
Date: Tue Dec 17 2013 - 18:29:19 EST
After the locking semantics for the SysV IPC API got improved, a couple of
IPC_RMID race windows were opened because we ended up dropping the
'kern_ipc_perm.deleted' check performed way down in ipc_lock().
The spotted races got sorted out by re-introducing the old test within
the racy critical sections.
This patch introduces ipc_valid_object() to consolidate the way we cope with
IPC_RMID races by using the same abstraction across the API implementation.

Changelog:
* v2:
- drop assert_spin_locked() from ipc_valid_object() for less overhead
- extend ipc_valid_object() usage in sem.c (not spotted checkpoints)
- keep the received ACKs
