futex: Acknowledge a new waiter in counter before plist
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Otherwise an incoming waker on the dest hash bucket can miss
the waiter adding itself to the plist during the lockless
check optimization (small window but still the correct way
of doing this); similarly to the decrement counterpart.
