Fixes a race between parent and child threads in futex_requeue.
Similar to commit fbf4dec70277 ("selftests/futex: Order calls to futex_lock_pi"), which fixed a flake in futex_lock_pi due to racing between the parent and child threads.
The same issue can occur in the futex_requeue test, because it expects waiterfn to make progress to futex_wait before the parent starts to requeue. This is mitigated by the parent sleeping for WAKE_WAIT_US, but it still fails occasionally. This can be reproduced by adding a sleep in the waiterfn before futex_wait:
TAP version 13 1..2 not ok 1 futex_requeue simple returned: 0 not ok 2 futex_requeue simple returned: 0 not ok 3 futex_requeue many returned: 0 not ok 4 futex_requeue many returned: 0
This issue can be resolved by checking whether the child thread is in a sleeping state. This is because when the child thread goes to sleep, it indicates that it is waiting for the futex lock.
