[ Upstream commit f0837746a7e258abb35e65defc432ca66786347f ]

Consider following race:

T0 T1 T2
wait_for_completion()
do_wait_for_common()
__prepare_to_swait()
schedule()
complete()
x->done++ (0 -> 1)
raw_spin_lock_irqsave()
swake_up_locked() wait_for_completion()
wake_up_process(T0)
list_del_init()
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore()
raw_spin_lock_irq(&x->wait.lock)
raw_spin_lock_irq(&x->wait.lock) x->done != UINT_MAX, 1 -> 0
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&x->wait.lock)
return 1
while (!x->done && timeout),
continue loop, not enqueued
on &x->wait

Basically, the problem is that the original wait queues used in
completions did not remove the item from the queue in the wakeup
function, but swake_up_locked() does.

Fix it by adding the thread to the wait queue inside the do loop.
The design of swait detects if it is already in the list and doesn't
do the list add again.
