    13	 * Implementation: user-space maintains a per-thread list of locks it
    14	 * is holding. Upon do_exit(), the kernel carefully walks this list,
    15	 * and marks all locks that are owned by this thread with the
    16	 * FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit, and wakes up a waiter (if any). The list is
    17	 * always manipulated with the lock held, so the list is private and
    18	 * per-thread. Userspace also maintains a per-thread 'list_op_pending'
    19	 * field, to allow the kernel to clean up if the thread dies after
    20	 * acquiring the lock, but just before it could have added itself to
    21	 * the list. There can only be one such pending lock.
