futex: Provide distinct return value when owner is exiting
commit ac31c7ff8624409ba3c4901df9237a616c187a5d upstream attach_to_pi_owner() returns -EAGAIN for various cases: - Owner task is exiting - Futex value has changed The caller drops the held locks (hash bucket, mmap_sem) and retries the operation. In case of the owner task exiting this can result in a live lock. As a preparatory step for seperating those cases, provide a distinct return value (EBUSY) for the owner exiting case. No functional change. Signed-off-by:Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by:
