In an analysis of a recent vmcore, a reader-owned rwsem was found with 385 readers but no writer in the wait queue. That is kind of unusual but it may be caused by some race conditions that we have not fully understood yet. In such a case, all the readers in the wait queue should join the other reader-owners and acquire the read lock. In rwsem_down_write_slowpath(), an incoming writer will try to wake up the front readers under such circumstance. That is not the case for rwsem_down_read_slowpath(), add a new helper function rwsem_cond_wake_waiter() to do wakeup and use it in both reader and writer slowpaths to have a consistent and correct behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
