Gents,

I've sifted out all the things which I intend to send to the boss soon. It
would be good if you could perform some quick non-ia32 testing please.

Possible breakage would be in the new frlock-for-xtime_lock code and the
get_order() cleanup.

The frlock code is showing nice speedups, but I think the main reason we want
this is to fix the problem wherein an application spinning on gettimeofday()
can make time stop.

It's all at

Thanks.
