Subject: [TIP][RFC 4/7] futex: finish_futex_lock_pi()

From: Darren Hart <dvhltc@...ibm.com>

Refactor the post lock acquisition logic from futex_lock_pi().  This code will
be reused in futex_wait_requeue_pi().

V4: -Corrected string paranoia check
    -Move the spinlock(q->lock_ptr) out of finish_futex_lock_pi to retain
     some semblance of lock/unlock in the same function.
V3: -Initial version
