[ Upstream commit 85f0e42bd65d01b351d561efb38e584d4c596553 ]
This reverts commit f346e96267cd76175d6c201b40f770c0116a8a04.
The commit tried to fix a possible real bug but it made it even worse.
The fix was simply buggy as now an error out to out_offline_policy or
out_exit_policy will try to release a semaphore which was never taken in
the first place. This works fine only if we failed late, i.e. via
out_destroy_policy.

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.
