From 885c2cb770b5ac2507c41bc9f91a5d1c98337bee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2015 20:07:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] futex: Cleanup the goto confusion in requeue_pi() out_unlock: does not only drop the locks, it also drops the refcount on the pi_state. Really intuitive. Move the label after the put_pi_state() call and use 'break' in the error handling path of the requeue loop.
