[ Upstream commit 952041a8639a7a3a73a2b6573cb8aa8518bc39f8 ]

While reviewing rwsem down_slowpath, Will noticed ldsem had a copy of
a bug we just found for rwsem.

X = 0;

CPU0 CPU1

rwsem_down_read()
for (;;) {
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);

X = 1;
rwsem_up_write();
rwsem_mark_wake()
atomic_long_add(adjustment, &sem->count);
smp_store_release(&waiter->task, NULL);

if (!waiter.task)
break;

...
}

r = X;

Allows 'r == 0'.
