[patch 5/5] futex: Cleanup the goto confusion in requeue_pi()

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sat Dec 19 2015 - 15:09:12 EST


out_unlock: does not only drop the locks, it also drops the refcount
on the pi_state. Really intuitive.

Move the label after the put_pi_state() call and use 'break' in the
error handling path of the requeue loop.
