locking/rwsem: Allow slowpath writer to ignore handoff bit if not set by first waiter 

With commit d257cc8cb8 ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff bit handling more
consistent"), the writer that sets the handoff bit can be interrupted
out without clearing the bit if the wait queue isn't empty. This disables
reader and writer optimistic lock spinning and stealing.

Now if a non-first writer in the queue is somehow woken up or a new
waiter enters the slowpath, it can't acquire the lock.  This is not the
case before commit d257cc8cb8 as the writer that set the handoff bit
will clear it when exiting out via the out_nolock path. This is less
efficient as the busy rwsem stays in an unlock state for a longer time.

In some cases, this new behavior may cause lockups as shown in [1] and
[2].

This patch allows a non-first writer to ignore the handoff bit if it
is not originally set or initiated by the first waiter. This patch is
shown to be effective in fixing the lockup problem reported in [1].
