The patch titled
Subject: ipc/sem: do not call wake_sem_queue_do() prematurely
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ipc-sem-do-not-call-wake_sem_queue_do-prematurely.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ipc/sem: do not call wake_sem_queue_do() prematurely
... as this call should obviously be paired with its _prepare()
counterpart. At least whenever possible, as there is no harm in
calling it bogusly as we do now in a few places. Immediate error
semop(2) paths that are far from ever having the task block can
be simplified and avoid a few unnecessary loads on their way out
of the call as it is not deeply nested.
