locking/rwsem: Always release wait_lock before waking up tasks 

With the use of wake_q, we can do task wakeups without holding the
wait_lock. There is one exception in the rwsem code, though. It is
when the writer in the slowpath detects that there are waiters ahead
but the rwsem is not held by a writer. This can lead to a long wait_lock
hold time especially when a large number of readers are to be woken up.

Remediate this situation by releasing the wait_lock before waking
up tasks and re-acquiring it afterward. The rwsem_try_write_lock()
function is also modified to read the rwsem count directly to avoid
stale count value.
