[PATCH] Fix __wait_on_atomic_t() to call the action func if thecounter != 0
From: David Howells
Date: Tue Jul 23 2013 - 11:49:39 EST
Fix __wait_on_atomic_t() so that it calls the action func if the counter != 0
rather than if the counter is 0 so as to be analogous to __wait_on_bit().
Thanks to Yacine who found this by visual inspection.
This will affect FS-Cache in that it will could fail to sleep correctly when
trying to clean up after a netfs cookie is withdrawn.
