[patch] futex: restartable futex_wait

[Nick Piggin]

LTP test sigaction_16_24 fails, because it expects sem_wait to be restarted
if SA_RESTART is set. sem_wait is implemented with futex_wait, that currently
doesn't support being restarted. Ulrich confirms that the call should be
restartable.

Implement a restart_block method to handle the relative timeout, and allow
restarts.
