Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() are misleading:
The function must be called while holdling the rw semaphore.
Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check(): This
name matches the other names used in util.c:
- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.

/**
- * ipcctl_pre_down_nolock - retrieve an ipc and check permissions for some IPC_XXX cmd
+ * ipcctl_obtain_check - retrieve an ipc object and check permissions
* @ns: ipc namespace
* @ids: the table of ids where to look for the ipc
* @id: the id of the ipc to retrieve
*
* This function does some common audit and permissions check for some IPC_XXX
* cmd and is called from semctl_down, shmctl_down and msgctl_down.
- * It must be called without any lock held and:
*
- * - retrieves the ipc with the given id in the given table.
+ * It:
+ * - retrieves the ipc object with the given id in the given table.
* - performs some audit and permission check, depending on the given cmd
* - returns a pointer to the ipc object or otherwise, the corresponding
* error.
*
* Call holding the both the rwsem and the rcu read lock.
