[PATCH 21/22] dept: Unstage wait when tagging a normal sleep wait

[Gwan-gyeong Mun]

From: Byungchul Park <byungchul.park at lge.com>

Staging a wait and commit have been introduced to handle conditional
sleeps that can be determined in __schedule() whether it actually goes
to sleep or not. With this feature, actual wait tagging is delayed
until __schedule().

Unfortunately, an ambiguity arises when a normal sleep wait that doesn't
require staging and commit, is involved in the middle of handling a
conditional sleep e.g. between prepare_to_wait_*() and __schedule(),
which is a very rare case tho.

So let it give up handling the conditional sleep by unstaging it
unconditionally when a normal sleep wait gets involved, to avoid the
ambiguity.
