ipc/sem.c: update sem_otime for all operations
commit 0e8c665699e953fa58dc1b0b0d09e5dce7343cc7 upstream. In commit 0a2b9d4c7967 ("ipc/sem.c: move wake_up_process out of the spinlock section"), the update of semaphore's sem_otime(last semop time) was moved to one central position (do_smart_update). But since do_smart_update() is only called for operations that modify the array, this means that wait-for-zero semops do not update sem_otime anymore. The fix is simple: Non-alter operations must update sem_otime.
