do_wait: fix sys_waitid()-specific behaviour
do_wait() checks ->wo_info to figure out who is the caller. If it's not NULL the caller should be sys_waitid(), in that case do_wait() fixes up the retval or zeros ->wo_info, depending on retval from underlying function. This is bug: user can pass ->wo_info == NULL and sys_waitid() will return incorrect value. man 2 waitid says: waitid(): returns 0 on success Test-case: int main(void) { if (fork()) assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WEXITED) == 0); return 0; } Result: Assertion `waitid(P_ALL, 0, ((void *)0), 4) == 0' failed. Move that code to sys_waitid(). User-visible change: sys_waitid() will return 0 on success, either infop is set or not. Note, there's another bug in wait_noreap_copyout() which affects return value of sys_waitid(). It will be fixed in next patch.
