I thought it is the longer email, the second that day, where he made
three points. Didn't read it (yet)…

Now FIFO ordering you say. Is it glibc's side or kernel side? The kernel
sorts the futex waiters according their (task's) priority. It is not
FIFO unless the tasks are of equal priority.
So a futex requeue will take the task with the highest priority from
uaddr1 and move it to uaddr2.
