futex: Decrease the waiter count before the unlock operation

To support runtime resizing of the process private hash, it's required
to not use the obtained hash bucket once the reference count has been
dropped. The reference will be dropped after the unlock of the hash
bucket.
The amount of waiters is decremented after the unlock operation. There
is no requirement that this needs to happen after the unlock. The
increment happens before acquiring the lock to signal early that there
will be a waiter. The waiter can avoid blocking on the lock if it is
known that there will be no waiter.
There is no difference in terms of ordering if the decrement happens
before or after the unlock.

Decrease the waiter count before the unlock operation.
