Nicholas Mc Guire 7c34e3180a sched/completion: Add lock-free checking of the blocking case
The "thread would block" case can be checked without grabbing ->wait.lock.

[ If the check does not return early then grab the lock and recheck.
  A memory barrier is not needed as complete() and complete_all() imply
  a barrier.

  The ACCESS_ONCE() is needed for calls in a loop that, if inlined, could
  optimize out the re-fetching of x->done. ]

Wolfram Sang a1bd537335 sched/completion: Document when to use wait_for_completion_io_*()
As discussed in [1], accounting IO is meant for blkio only. Document that
so driver authors won't use them for device io.

Peter Zijlstra b8a216269e sched: Move completion code from core.c to completion.c
Completions already have their own header file: linux/completion.h
Move the implementation out of kernel/sched/core.c and into its own
file: kernel/sched/completion.c.
