[PATCH] Fix the x86_64 implementation of call_rwsem_wait()

[David Howells]

The x86_64 call_rwsem_wait() treats the active state counter part of the R/W
semaphore state as being 16-bit when it's actually 32-bit (it's half of the
64-bit state).  It should do "decl %edx" not "decw %dx".

x86-64: Use the proper register width in call_rwsem_wait()

The x86_64 call_rwsem_wait() treats the active state counter part of the R/W
semaphore state as being 16-bit when it's actually 32-bit (it's half of the
64-bit state).  It should do "decl %edx" not "decw %dx".

[ hpa note: decl %edx will clear the upper half of %rdx, but the value of
  %rdx is dead after this point so that is OK. ]
