6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit d4f484661961636eb90d287050959e613795f73a ]

rds_cong_map_updated() runs after a peer's congestion map has been
rewritten (by rds_tcp_cong_recv() and rds_ib_cong_recv(), or the
clear-all in the loopback and IB send-completion paths).  It bumps
rds_cong_generation and then checks waitqueue_active() on
map->m_waitq and on rds_poll_waitq to decide whether anyone needs
waking.  atomic_inc() carries no ordering and waitqueue_active() is a
plain load, so nothing orders the map and generation stores before
the wait queue reads.  The waiters do the mirror image: rds_cong_wait()
adds itself to m_waitq and then tests the port bit, and rds_poll()
registers on rds_poll_waitq and then reads the generation.  That is
the store-buffering pattern described above waitqueue_active() in
include/linux/wait.h - the updater can observe an empty wait queue
while the waiter still observes the port as congested, and no wake-up
is issued.

rds_cong_wait() is an interruptible sleep with no timeout, so a
sender blocked on a congested port stays blocked until the next
congestion update from that peer arrives or a signal is delivered.
A poll() waiter misses the map-updated notification the same way.

Use wq_has_sleeper(), which is waitqueue_active() preceded by the
required full barrier, as rds_tcp_state_change() already does for
the same pattern.
