commit 605b0487f0 upstream.
Mark Syms has reported seeing tasks that are stuck waiting in
find_insert_glock. It turns out that struct lm_lockname contains four padding
bytes on 64-bit architectures that function glock_waitqueue doesn't skip when
hashing the glock name. As a result, we can end up waking up the wrong
waitqueue, and the waiting tasks may be stuck forever.
Fix that by using ht_parms.key_len instead of sizeof(struct lm_lockname) for
the key length.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
