We can avoid the idr tree lookup (albeit possibly avoiding idr_find_fast()) when being awoken in EINTR, as the semid will not change in this context while blocked. Use the sma pointer directly and take the sem_lock, then re-check for RMID races. We continue to re-check the queue.status with the lock held such that we can detect situations where we where are dealing with a spurious wakeup but another task that holds the sem_lock updated the queue.status while we were spinning for it. Once we take the lock it obviously won't change again. Being the only caller, get rid of sem_obtain_lock() altogether.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
