futex,plist: Pass the real head of the priority list to plist_del()
Some plist_del()s in kernel/futex.c are passed a faked head of the priority list. It does not fail because the current code does not require the real head in plist_del(). The current code of plist_del() just uses the head for checking, so it will not cause a bad result even when we use a faked head. But it is undocumented usage: /** * plist_del - Remove a @node from plist. * * @node: &struct plist_node pointer - entry to be removed * @head: &struct plist_head pointer - list head */ The document says that the @head is the "list head" head of the priority list. In futex code, several places use "plist_del(&q->list, &q->list.plist);", they pass a fake head. We need to fix them all. Thanks to Darren Hart for many suggestions.
