Subject: [PATCH] fix race condition in file locking

The condition occurs when
- thread #1 is holding the lock
- thread #2 is waiting for it on __futexwait
- thread #1 is about to release the lock and performs a_swap
- thread #3 enters the __lockfile function and manages to grab the lock
  before thread #1 calls __wake, resetting the MAYBE_WAITERS flag
- thread #1 calls __wake
- thread #2 wakes up but goes again to __futexwait as the lock is
  held by thread #3
- thread #3 releases the lock but does not call __wake as the
  MAYBE_WAITERS flag is not set

This condition results in thread #2 not being woken up. This patch fixes
the problem by making the woken up thread ensure that the flag is
properly set before going to sleep again.

Mainainer's note: This fixes a regression introduced in commit
c21f750727515602a9e84f2a190ee8a0a2aeb2a1.
