[PATCH v4 3/5] locking/rwsem: Don't wake up one's own task

[Waiman Long]

As rwsem_down_read_failed() will queue itself and potentially call
__rwsem_do_wake(sem, RWSEM_WAKE_ANY), it is possible that a reader
will try to wake up its own task. This patch adds a check to make
sure that this won't happen.
