Subject: [PATCH] sched/wait: Fix add_wait_queue() behavioral change

The following cleanup commit:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  50816c48997a ("sched/wait: Standardize internal naming of wait-queue entries")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
... unintentionally changed the behavior of add_wait_queue() from
 | 
						|
inserting the wait entry at the head of the wait queue to the tail
 | 
						|
of the wait queue.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Beyond a negative performance impact this change in behavior
 | 
						|
theoretically also breaks wait queues which mix exclusive and
 | 
						|
non-exclusive waiters, as non-exclusive waiters will not be
 | 
						|
woken up if they are queued behind enough exclusive waiters.
