ipc/sem.c: fix race in sem_lock()

ipc/sem.c: fix race in sem_lock()

The exclusion of complex operations in sem_lock() is insufficient: after
acquiring the per-semaphore lock, a simple op must first check that
sem_perm.lock is not locked and only after that test check
complex_count.  The current code does it the other way around - and that
creates a race.  Details are below.

The patch is a complete rewrite of sem_lock(), based in part on the code
from Mike Galbraith.  It removes all gotos and all loops and thus the
risk of livelocks.

I have tested the patch (together with the next one) on my i3 laptop and
it didn't cause any problems.

The bug is probably also present in 3.10 and 3.11, but for these kernels
it might be simpler just to move the test of sma->complex_count after
the spin_is_locked() test.

Details of the bug:

Assume:
 - sma->complex_count = 0.
 - Thread 1: semtimedop(complex op that must sleep)
 - Thread 2: semtimedop(simple op).
