Subject: [PATCH 12/12] locking/rwsem: Make MSbit of count as guard bit to fail readlock
With the merging of owner into count for x86-64, there is only 16 bits
left for reader count. It is theoretically possible for an application to
cause more than 64k readers to acquire a rwsem leading to count overflow.
To prevent this dire situation, the most significant bit of the count
is now treated as a guard bit (RWSEM_FLAG_READFAIL). Read-lock will now
fails for both the fast and optimistic spinning paths whenever this bit
is set. So all those extra readers will be put to sleep in the wait
queue. Wakeup will not happen until the reader count reaches 0. This
effectively limit the maximum reader count to 32k.
A limit of 256 is also imposed on the number of readers that can be woken
up in one wakeup function call. This will eliminate the possibility of
waking up more than 64k readers and overflowing the count.
