 * This file implements counting semaphores.
 * A counting semaphore may be acquired 'n' times before sleeping.
 * See mutex.c for single-acquisition sleeping locks which enforce
 * rules which allow code to be debugged more easily.
 */

/*
 * Some notes on the implementation:
 *
 * The spinlock controls access to the other members of the semaphore.
 * down_trylock() and up() can be called from interrupt context, so we
 * have to disable interrupts when taking the lock.  It turns out various
 * parts of the kernel expect to be able to use down() on a semaphore in
 * interrupt context when they know it will succeed, so we have to use
 * irqsave variants for down(), down_interruptible() and down_killable()
 * too.
 *
 * The ->count variable represents how many more tasks can acquire this
 * semaphore.  If it's zero, there may be tasks waiting on the wait_list.
