Subject: [tip PATCH v6 6/8] RFC: futex: Add FUTEX_HAS_TIMEOUT flag to
	restart.futex.flags

Currently restart is only used if there is a timeout.  The requeue_pi
functionality requires restarting to futex_lock_pi() on signal after
wakeup in futex_wait_requeue_pi() regardless of if there was a timeout
or not.  Using 0 for the timeout value is confusing as that could
indicate an expired timer.  The flag makes this explicit.
