From: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]>
commit a97cb0e7b3f4c6297fd857055ae8e895f402f501 upstream.
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.
