[ Upstream commit c73801ae4f22b390228ebf471d55668e824198b6 ]
On no-MMU, all futexes are treated as private because there is no need to map a virtual address to physical to match the futex across processes. This doesn't quite work though, because private futexes include the current process's mm_struct as part of their key. This makes it impossible for one process to wake up a shared futex being waited on in another process.
Fix this bug by excluding the mm_struct from the key. With a single address space, the futex address is already a unique key.
