That code is in just in the tip tree. It is not in the mainline yet. I
do realize that it can be a problem and so I have it modified to the
following in my part2 patchset.

static inline void __up_write(struct rw_semaphore *sem)
{
        long tmp;

        /*
         * sem->owner may differ from current if the ownership is
transferred
         * to an anonymous writer by setting the RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE bits.
         */
        DEBUG_RWSEMS_WARN_ON((sem->owner != current) &&
                            !((long)sem->owner & RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE), sem);

Maybe I should break this part out and have it merged into tip as well.

Cheers,
Longman
