381 if (wake_writer)
==> 382 wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll(&pipe->wr_wait, EPOLLOUT | EPOLLWRNORM);
383 if (wake_next_reader)
384 wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll(&pipe->rd_wait, EPOLLIN | EPOLLRDNORM);
385 kill_fasync(&pipe->fasync_writers, SIGIO, POLL_OUT);
386 if (ret > 0)
387 file_accessed(filp);
388 return ret;

line 382, no?
