locking/rwsem: Fix down_write_killable() for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK=y We hang if SIGKILL has been sent, but the task is stuck in down_read() (after do_exit()), even though no task is doing down_write() on the rwsem in question: INFO: task libupnp:21868 blocked for more than 120 seconds. libupnp D 0 21868 1 0x08100008 ... Call Trace: __schedule() schedule() __down_read() do_exit() do_group_exit() __wake_up_parent() This bug has already been fixed for CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM=y in the following commit: 04cafed7fc19 ("locking/rwsem: Fix down_write_killable()") ... however, this bug also exists for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK=y.
