+ * futex_exit_recursive - Set the tasks futex state to FUTEX_STATE_DEAD
+ * @tsk: task to set the state on
+ *
+ * Set the futex exit state of the task lockless. The futex waiter code
+ * observes that state when a task is exiting and loops until the task has
+ * actually finished the futex cleanup. The worst case for this is that the
+ * waiter runs through the wait loop until the state becomes visible.
+ *
+ * This is called from the recursive fault handling path in do_exit().
+ *
+ * This is best effort. Either the futex exit code has run already or
+ * not. If the OWNER_DIED bit has been set on the futex then the waiter can
+ * take it over. If not, the problem is pushed back to user space. If the
+ * futex exit code did not run yet, then an already queued waiter might
+ * block forever, but there is nothing which can be done about that.
