[PATCH 5.15 232/667] printk: add missing memory barrier to wake_up_klogd()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: John Ogness <john.ogness@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1f5d783094cf28b4905f51cad846eb5d1db6673e ]

It is important that any new records are visible to preparing
waiters before the waker checks if the wait queue is empty.
Otherwise it is possible that:

- there are new records available
- the waker sees an empty wait queue and does not wake
- the preparing waiter sees no new records and begins to wait

This is exactly the problem that the function description of
waitqueue_active() warns about.

Use wq_has_sleeper() instead of waitqueue_active() because it
includes the necessary full memory barrier.
