The is_special_task_state() check in __set_current_state_no_track() has been wrongly placed. __set_current_state_no_track() is used in RT while a sleeping lock is acquired. It is used at the begin of the wait loop with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and while leaving it and restoring the original state. The latter part triggers the warning. Drop the special state check. This is only used within the sleeping lock implementation and the assignment happens while the PI lock is held. While at it, drop set_current_state_no_track() because it has no users.

I don't think we need to keep the do { } while with a single line. It
is now equivalent to the non-debug version of __set_current_state()
which is defined as:
#define __set_current_state(state_value) \
current->state = (state_value)
