If wait_cnt is '0', but the waitqueue_active happens to be false due to racing
with add_wait_queue(), this returns true so the caller will retry. The next
atomic_dec will set the current waitstate wait_cnt < 0, which also forces an
early return true. When does the wake up happen, or wait_cnt and wait_index get
updated in that case?
