[PATCH] locking/rwsem: Fix logic error in rwsem_del_waiter()

[Andrei Vagin]

Commit 1ea4b473504b ("locking/rwsem: Remove the list_head from struct
rw_semaphore") introduced a logic error in rwsem_del_waiter().

The root cause of this issue is an inconsistency in the return values of
__rwsem_del_waiter() and rwsem_del_waiter(). Specifically,
__rwsem_del_waiter() returns true when the wait list becomes empty,
whereas rwsem_del_waiter() is supposed to return true if the wait list
is NOT empty.

This caused a null pointer dereference in rwsem_mark_wake() because it
was being called when sem->first_waiter was NULL.
