IIUC after reivewing your patch and src code, does it seem
sem_otime lost the chance to be updated when calling
semctl_main/semctl_setval?
In old codes, even whendo_smart_update(sma, NULL, 0, 0, &tasks),
the otime can be updated after several conditions checking.
The update is performed now performed inside perform_atomic_semop():

Old code:
perform_atomic_semop() does not update sem_otime. It just returns 0 for successfull operations. This "0 returned" is passed upwards ("semop_completed") into do_smart_update()
do_smart_update() updates sem_otime.

New code:
perform_atomic_semop() updates sem_otime immediately (your change).
No need to keep track if a waiting operation was completed (my change).

I don't see a problem - perhaps I overlook something.
Which problem do you see?
