No it's not.

Thomas, stop this crap already. Look at the f*cking code carefully
instead of just dismissing cases.

The worrisome EAGAIN case is

futex_requeue
futex_proxy_trylock_atomic
futex_lock_pi_atomic
lookup_pi_state:
ret = (p->flags & PF_EXITPIDONE) ? -ESRCH : -EAGAIN;

and now futex_requeue() will do "goto repeat" for that EAGAIN case.

So, Christ, Thomas, you have now *twice* dismissed a real concern with
totally bogus "that can never happen" by explaining some totally
unrelated *simple* case rather than the much more complex case.

So please. Really. Truly look at the code and thing about it, or shut
the f*ck up. No more of this shit where you glance at the code, find
some simple case, and say "that can't happen", and dismiss the
bug-report.

So far Dave's bug-reports have generally pretty much universally shown
real bugs. Being dismissive about it is not helpful, quite the
reverse.

Maybe the loop I'm pointing at cannot happen, but *your* explanation
for why it couldn't happen was pure and utter garbage, and was clearly
because you hadn't even bothered to look at all the cases.
