Omar Sandoval 6c0ca7ae29 sbitmap: fix wakeup hang after sbq resize
When we resize a struct sbitmap_queue, we update the wakeup batch size,
but we don't update the wait count in the struct sbq_wait_states. If we
resized down from a size which could use a bigger batch size, these
counts could be too large and cause us to miss necessary wakeups. To fix
this, update the wait counts when we resize (ensuring some careful
memory ordering so that it's safe w.r.t. concurrent clears).

This also fixes a theoretical issue where two threads could end up
bumping the wait count up by the batch size, which could also
potentially lead to hangs.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
