Subject: [PATCH 6.0 517/862] sbitmap: Avoid leaving waitqueue in invalid state in __sbq_wake_up()

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

[ Upstream commit 48c033314f372478548203c583529f53080fd078 ]

When __sbq_wake_up() decrements wait_cnt to 0 but races with someone
else waking the waiter on the waitqueue (so the waitqueue becomes
empty), it exits without reseting wait_cnt to wake_batch number. Once
wait_cnt is 0, nobody will ever reset the wait_cnt or wake the new
waiters resulting in possible deadlocks or busyloops. Fix the problem by
making sure we reset wait_cnt even if we didn't wake up anybody in the
end.

Fixes: 040b83fcecfb ("sbitmap: fix possible io hung due to lost wakeup")
