Subject: [PATCH 13/20] ipc/sem.c: Avoid ipc_rcu_putref for failed ipc_addid()
Loosely based on a patch from Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>:
- id and retval can be merged
- if ipc_addid() fails, then use call_rcu() directly.
The difference is that call_rcu is used for failed ipc_addid() calls,
to continue to guaranteed an rcu delay for security_sem_free().
