commit a97cb0e7b3f4c6297fd857055ae8e895f402f501 upstream.

Both Geert and DaveJ reported that the recent futex commit:

    c1e2f0eaf015 ("futex: Avoid violating the 10th rule of futex")

introduced a problem with setting OWNER_DEAD. We set the bit on an
uninitialized variable and then entirely optimize it away as a
dead-store.

Move the setting of the bit to where it is more useful.

Why have you dropped my Reviewed-by?

Really sorry. I thought that a changed patchset needs another review.
Then I do need to append your Reviewed-by and send a "V2" patchset, Do I?

No need.  I won't hold up merging just for that.

Just bear in mind that you should apply and carry forward *-by tags
unless there have been significant/functional changes.

I get it, thanks.
