sbitmap: Try each queue to wake up at least one waiter
Jan reported the new algorithm as merged might be problematic if the queue being awaken becomes empty between the waitqueue_active inside sbq_wake_ptr check and the wake up. If that happens, wake_up_nr will not wake up any waiter and we loose too many wake ups. In order to guarantee progress, we need to wake up at least one waiter here, if there are any. This now requires trying to wake up from every queue. Instead of walking through all the queues with sbq_wake_ptr, this call moves the wake up inside that function. In a previous version of the patch, I found that updating wake_index several times when walking through queues had a measurable overhead. This ensures we only update it once, at the end.
