The second is removing the rtmutex tester as with the current implementation of the lock chain walk plus the demise of the lock steal mechanism and the BKL extra logic, we can now build a tester in userspace via the futex syscall. The other patches clarify and optimize the deadlock detection logic and the lock chain walk mechanism. Thanks, Thomas
