To keep the overhead of robust futexes low the list is kept in userspace. When the task exits the kernel carefully walks these lists to recover held futexes that other tasks may be attempting to acquire with FUTEX_WAIT. Because they point to userspace memory that is saved/restored by checkpoint/restart saving the list pointers themselves is safe. While saving the pointers is safe during checkpoint, restart is tricky because the robust futex ABI contains provisions for changes based on checking the size of the list head. So we need to save the length of the list head too in order to make sure that the kernel used during restart is capable of handling that ABI. Since there is only one ABI supported at the moment taking the list head's size is simple. Should the ABI change we will need to use the same size as specified during sys_set_robust_list() and hence some new means of determining the length of this userspace structure in sys_checkpoint would be required. Rather than rewrite the logic that checks and handles the ABI we reuse sys_set_robust_list() by factoring out the body of the function and calling it during restart.
