net: Generalise wq_has_sleeper helper
The memory barrier in the helper wq_has_sleeper is needed by just about every user of waitqueue_active. This patch generalises it by making it take a wait_queue_head_t directly. The existing helper is renamed to skwq_has_sleeper. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
