Peter Zijlstra 741a76b350 kthread, sched/wait: Fix kthread_parkme() wait-loop 
Gaurav reported a problem with __kthread_parkme() where a concurrent
try_to_wake_up() could result in competing stores to ->state which,
when the TASK_PARKED store got lost bad things would happen.

The comment near set_current_state() actually mentions this competing
store, but only mentions the case against TASK_RUNNING. This same
store, with different timing, can happen against a subsequent !RUNNING
store.

This normally is not a problem, because as per that same comment, the
!RUNNING state store is inside a condition based wait-loop:

  for (;;) {
    set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
    if (!need_sleep)
      break;
    schedule();
  }
  __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);

If we loose the (first) TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE store to a previous
(concurrent) wakeup, the schedule() will NO-OP and we'll go around the
loop once more.

The problem here is that the TASK_PARKED store is not inside the
KTHREAD_SHOULD_PARK condition wait-loop.

There is a genuine issue with sleeps that do not have a condition;
this is addressed in a subsequent patch.
