   locks: fix a potential use-after-free problem when wakeup a waiter

I've queued it up for 5.5 and 5.4, thanks!

I'm a bit surprised that it hasn't yet been applied, while some fixes
from 5.6-rc6 have.

Greg, I wonder if it makes sense to have you push a "Greg is here
--->" "bookmark" in the form of a tag/branch on linux-stable-rc.git? at
the very least it'll make it easy to see if something was missed or
still waiting in the queue.
