This is definitely the way to go, in the age of
multicore-systems. Some of the patches are already included in
linux-3.5, and the rest needs to be rebased on top of it. I'd like to
try the whole series on a quadcore testing machine, but I'm not
familiar with the code in most of the patches, and only one single
wrong merge could lead to wrong conclusions.
