This is meant for PeterZ as this should be folded into one of this
patches on which this series is built upon.
The argument "task" passed to futex_wait_setup() is always current or
NULL. The latter is only used by io_uring. So instead getting a task
passed and assuming it belongs to the current process we could have a
bool and enforce this.
The problem would be if things change later on and the passed task does
not belong to the current process hierarchy and would not share the same
private hash.
