sched/completion: Add lock-free checking of the blocking case
The "thread would block" case can be checked without grabbing ->wait.lock. [ If the check does not return early then grab the lock and recheck. A memory barrier is not needed as complete() and complete_all() imply a barrier. The ACCESS_ONCE() is needed for calls in a loop that, if inlined, could optimize out the re-fetching of x->done. ] Signed-off-by:Nicholas Mc Guire <der.herr@hofr.at> Signed-off-by:
