e8577d1f0329d4842e8302e289fb2c22156abef4 upstream.
ipc_addid() makes a new ipc identifier visible to everyone. New objects
start as locked, so that the caller can complete the initialization
after the call. Within struct sem_array, at least sma->sem_base and
sma->sem_nsems are accessed without any locks, therefore this approach
doesn't work.
Thus: Move the ipc_addid() to the end of the initialization.
