futex: FLAGS_STRICT

The current semantics for futex_wake() are a bit loose, specifically
asking for 0 futexes to be woken actually gets you 1.

Adding a !nr check to sys_futex_wake() makes that it would return 0
for unaligned futex words, because that check comes in the shared
futex_wake() function. Adding the !nr check there, would affect the
legacy sys_futex() semantics.

Hence frob a flag :-(
