hrm, i didnt notice that conditional_schedule wasnt defined in that
patch.  you will need to do it, but do something more like

if (current->need_resched && current->lock_depth == 0) {
	unlock_kernel();
	lock_kernel();
}

like Andrew wrote.

If you don't jump on the idea of trying this :) I will send work out a
patch that does some other low-latency thigns and send it out.
