This patch removes __ASSUME_FUTEX_LOCK_PI usage and assumes that
kernel will correctly return if it supports or not
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic.
Current PI mutex code already has runtime support by calling
prio_inherit_missing and returns ENOTSUP if the futex operation fails
at initialization (it issues a FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI futex operation).
Also, current minimum supported kernel (v3.2) will return ENOSYS if
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic is not supported in the system:
kernel/futex.c:
2628 long do_futex(u32 __user *uaddr, int op, u32 val, ktime_t *timeout,
2629 u32 __user *uaddr2, u32 val2, u32 val3)
2630 {
2631 int ret = -ENOSYS, cmd = op & FUTEX_CMD_MASK;
[...]
2667 case FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI:
2668 if (futex_cmpxchg_enabled)
2669 ret = futex_unlock_pi(uaddr, flags);
[...]
2686 return ret;
2687 }
The futex_cmpxchg_enabled is initialized by calling cmpxchg_futex_value_locked,
which calls futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic.
For ARM futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic will be either defined (if both
CONFIG_CPU_USE_DOMAINS and CONFIG_SMP are not defined) or use the
default generic implementation that returns ENOSYS.
For m68k is uses the default generic implementation.
For mips futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic will return ENOSYS if cpu has no
'cpu_has_llsc' support (defined by each chip supporte inside kernel).
For sparc, 32-bit kernel will just use default generic implementation,
while 64-bit kernel has support.
Tested on ARM (v3.8 kernel) and x86_64.
