Subject: [PATCH] locking/rwsem: fix down_write_killable for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK

From: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@...s.com>

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.
      Tainted: G           O    4.9.11-devel #1
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

This bug has already been fixed for CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM in
commit 04cafed7fc19 ("locking/rwsem: Fix down_write_killable()"), however,
this bug also exists for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK.
