notifier: Fix broken error handling pattern

Browse Source 
The current notifiers have the following error handling pattern all
over the place:

	int err, nr;

	err = __foo_notifier_call_chain(&chain, val_up, v, -1, &nr);
	if (err & NOTIFIER_STOP_MASK)
		__foo_notifier_call_chain(&chain, val_down, v, nr-1, NULL)

And aside from the endless repetition thereof, it is broken. Consider
blocking notifiers; both calls take and drop the rwsem, this means
that the notifier list can change in between the two calls, making @nr
meaningless.

Fix this by replacing all the __foo_notifier_call_chain() functions
with foo_notifier_call_chain_robust() that embeds the above pattern,
but ensures it is inside a single lock region.

Note: I switched atomic_notifier_call_chain_robust() to use
      the spinlock, since RCU cannot provide the guarantee
      required for the recovery.

Note: software_resume() error handling was broken afaict.
