sched/wake_q: Reduce reference counting for special users

Browse Source 
Some users, specifically futexes and rwsems, required fixes
that allowed the callers to be safe when wakeups occur before
they are expected by wake_up_q(). Such scenarios also play
games and rely on reference counting, and until now were
pivoting on wake_q doing it. With the wake_q_add() call being
moved down, this can no longer be the case. As such we end up
with a a double task refcounting overhead; and these callers
care enough about this (being rather core-ish).

This patch introduces a wake_q_add_safe() call that serves
for callers that have already done refcounting and therefore the
task is 'safe' from wake_q point of view (int that it requires
reference throughout the entire queue/>wakeup cycle). In the one
case it has internal reference counting, in the other case it
consumes the reference counting.
