Subject: futex: Provide distinct return value when owner is exiting
X-Git-Tag: v5.15~5067^2~11
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac31c7ff8624409ba3c4901df9237a616c187a5d;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git

futex: Provide distinct return value when owner is exiting

attach_to_pi_owner() returns -EAGAIN for various cases:

 - Owner task is exiting
 - Futex value has changed

The caller drops the held locks (hash bucket, mmap_sem) and retries the
operation. In case of the owner task exiting this can result in a live
lock.

As a preparatory step for seperating those cases, provide a distinct return
value (EBUSY) for the owner exiting case.

No functional change.
