From a97cb0e7b3f4c6297fd857055ae8e895f402f501 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2018 11:39:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] futex: Fix OWNER_DEAD fixup Both Geert and DaveJ reported that the recent futex commit: c1e2f0eaf015 ("futex: Avoid violating the 10th rule of futex") introduced a problem with setting OWNER_DEAD. We set the bit on an uninitialized variable and then entirely optimize it away as a dead-store. Move the setting of the bit to where it is more useful.
