ipc/sem.c: bugfix for semop() not reporting successful operation 

The last change to improve the scalability moved the actual wake-up out of
the section that is protected by spin_lock(sma->sem_perm.lock).

This means that IN_WAKEUP can be in queue.status even when the spinlock is
acquired by the current task.  Thus the same loop that is performed when
queue.status is read without the spinlock acquired must be performed when
the spinlock is acquired.

Thanks to kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com for noticing lack of the memory
barrier.
