Subject[PATCH 01/10] x86 rwsem: minor cleanups
Date
The only functional change here is that __up_write won't call
call_rwsem_wake anymore if the new rwsem value is >0. This makes
no real difference since call_rwsem_wake would have noticed the
active count being nonzero and done nothing anyway.

Besides that, I clarified a few comments.

Feel free to drop this patch from the series if you don't like it;
nothing else depends on it.
