Missing my Reported-by ...!
I have tested this patch instead of Linus' suggested patch against
Linux-Next (next-20130423) with known missing IPC-SEM patches in
-next.
Davidlohr Bueso (2):
ipc, sem: do not call sem_lock when bogus sma
ipc: make refcounter atomic
Rik van Riel (3):
ipc,sem: untangle RCU locking with find_alloc_undo
ipc,sem: fix lockdep false positive
ipc,sem: fix locking in semctl_main
...so please add also my Tested-by!
Thanks to all involved people!
