sched/core: Use smp_mb() in wake_woken_function()
wake_woken_function() synchronizes with wait_woken() as follows: [wait_woken] [wake_woken_function] entry->flags &= ~wq_flag_woken; condition = true; smp_mb(); smp_wmb(); if (condition) wq_entry->flags |= wq_flag_woken; break; This commit replaces the above smp_wmb() with an smp_mb() in order to guarantee that either wait_woken() sees the wait condition being true or the store to wq_entry->flags in woken_wake_function() follows the store in wait_woken() in the coherence order (so that the former can eventually be observed by wait_woken()). The commit also fixes a comment associated to set_current_state() in wait_woken(): the comment pairs the barrier in set_current_state() to the above smp_wmb(), while the actual pairing involves the barrier in set_current_state() and the barrier executed by the try_to_wake_up() in wake_woken_function().
