semget(): Check for [EEXIST] error first.

Browse Source 
Although POSIX literally permits failing with [EINVAL] if IPC_CREAT and
IPC_EXCL were both passed, the semaphore set already exists and has fewer
semaphores than nsems, this does not allow an application to retry safely:
if the [EINVAL] is actually because of the semmsl limit, an infinite loop
would result.
