[PATCH] semctl.2: Correct SEM_STAT_ANY description

From: Alejandro Colomar <hidden>
Date: 2020-12-29 11:19:05
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Yang Xu <redacted>

Since kernel commit a280d6dc77eb
("ipc/sem: introduce semctl(SEM_STAT_ANY)"),
it only skips read access check when using SEM_STAT_ANY command.
And it should use the semid_ds struct instead of seminfo struct.
Fix this.
