[PATCH -next 2/2] ipc/sem: avoid idr tree lookup for interrupted semop

[Davidlohr Bueso]

We can avoid the idr tree lookup (albeit possibly avoiding
idr_find_fast()) when being awoken in EINTR, as the semid
will not change in this context while blocked. Use the sma
pointer directly and take the sem_lock, then re-check for
RMID races. We continue to re-check the queue.status with
the lock held such that we can detect situations where we
where are dealing with a spurious wakeup but another task
that holds the sem_lock updated the queue.status while we
were spinning for it. Once we take the lock it obviously
won't change again.

Being the only caller, get rid of sem_obtain_lock() altogether.
