When __sbq_wake_up() decrements wait_cnt to 0 but races with someone else waking the waiter on the waitqueue (so the waitqueue becomes empty), it exits without reseting wait_cnt to wake_batch number. Once wait_cnt is 0, nobody will ever reset the wait_cnt or wake the new waiters resulting in possible deadlocks or busyloops. Fix the problem by making sure we reset wait_cnt even if we didn't wake up anybody in the end.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
