[PATCH] locking/rwsem: Reinit wake_q after use
From: Waiman Long
Date: Sat Jan 21 2017 - 21:34:59 EST
In __rwsem_down_write_failed_common(), the same wake_q variable name
is defined twice, with the inner wake_q hiding the one in outer scope.
We can either use different names for the two wake_q's. Even better,
we can use the same wake_q twice, if necessary. To enable the latter
change, we need to define a new helper function wake_q_init() to
enable reinitalization of wake_q after use.
