Subject: [PATCH 4.17 126/220] locking/rwsem: Fix up_read_non_owner() warning with DEBUG_RWSEMS

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Waiman Long <longman@...hat.com>

commit 03eeafdd9ab06a770d42c2b264d50dff7e2f4eee upstream.

It was found that the use of up_read_non_owner() in NFS was causing
the following warning when DEBUG_RWSEMS was configured.

  DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(sem->owner != ((struct task_struct *)(1UL << 0)))

Looking into the rwsem.c file, it was discovered that the corresponding
down_read_non_owner() function was not setting the owner field properly.
This is fixed now, and the warning should be gone.

Fixes: 5149cbac4235 ("locking/rwsem: Add DEBUG_RWSEMS to look for lock/unlock mismatches")
