64ac24e738 Generic semaphore implementation
Semaphores are no longer performance-critical, so a generic C
implementation is better for maintainability, debuggability and
extensibility.  Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for fixing the lockdep
warning.  Thanks to Harvey Harrison for pointing out that the
unlikely() was unnecessary.
