lwlock: Fix, currently harmless, bug in LWLockWakeup()HEADorigin/masterorigin/HEADmaster
Accidentally the code in LWLockWakeup() checked the list of to-be-woken up
processes to see if LW_FLAG_HAS_WAITERS should be unset. That means that
HAS_WAITERS would not get unset immediately, but only during the next,
unnecessary, call to LWLockWakeup().
Luckily, as the code stands, this is just a small efficiency issue.
However, if there were (as in a patch of mine) a case in which LWLockWakeup()
would not find any backend to wake, despite the wait list not being empty,
we'd wrongly unset LW_FLAG_HAS_WAITERS, leading to potentially hanging.
While the consequences in the backbranches are limited, the code as-is
confusing, and it is possible that there are workloads where the additional
wait list lock acquisitions hurt, therefore backpatch.
