837 * Support for robust futexes: the kernel cleans up held futexes at
838 * thread exit time.
839 *
840 * Implementation: user-space maintains a per-thread list of locks it
841 * is holding. Upon do_exit(), the kernel carefully walks this list,
842 * and marks all locks that are owned by this thread with the
843 * FUTEX_OWNER_DEAD bit, and wakes up a waiter (if any). The list is
844 * always manipulated with the lock held, so the list is private and
845 * per-thread. Userspace also maintains a per-thread 'list_op_pending'
846 * field, to allow the kernel to clean up if the thread dies after
847 * acquiring the lock, but just before it could have added itself to
848 * the list. There can only be one such pending lock.
