Elizabeth Figura cdbb997822 ntsync: Introduce NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ALL.
This is similar to NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ANY, but waits until all of the objects are
simultaneously signaled, and then acquires all of them as a single atomic
operation.

Because acquisition of multiple objects is atomic, some complex locking is
required. We cannot simply spin-lock multiple objects simultaneously, as that
may disable preëmption for a problematically long time.

Instead, modifying any object which may be involved in a wait-all operation takes
a device-wide sleeping mutex, "wait_all_lock", instead of the normal object
spinlock.

Because wait-for-all is a rare operation, in order to optimize wait-for-any,
this lock is only taken when necessary. "all_hint" is used to mark objects which
are involved in a wait-for-all operation, and if an object is not, only its
spinlock is taken.

The locking scheme used here was written by Peter Zijlstra.
