futex: Simplify futex_lock_pi_atomic() and make it more robust
futex_lock_pi_atomic() is a maze of retry hoops and loops. Reduce it to simple and understandable states: First step is to lookup existing waiters (state) in the kernel. If there is an existing waiter, validate it and attach to it. If there is no existing waiter, check the user space value If the TID encoded in the user space value is 0, take over the futex preserving the owner died bit. If the TID encoded in the user space value is != 0, lookup the owner task, validate it and attach to it. Reduces text size by 128 bytes on x8664.
