One fear that I had was that the "cleanup" of the semaphore functions being integrated (at Anton's request) may have been too invasive for people, especially when I only have about 4 or 5 arches to do testing on. It's where the majority of the arch impact lies. Can I get at least one more ack before pushing things out to lkml? That's where someone might snarf this for some tree or other and generate bugreports if I flubbed something, so I'm keeping a lid on it until it's had time to "cook" or otherwise pass at least minimalistic arch maintainer review. Hey, this is a stable series -- I think I'm doing the right thing here. I realize it's off-hours on .us west coast and/or that $TZ may vary. I'll be conservative and hold out at least for the clock to roll over worldwide before spraying it out for general consumption. Thanks. -- wli
