[RFC][PATCH 2.5.70] Static tunable semvmx and semaem

[Arvind Kandhare <arvind.kan@wipro.com>]

Hi,
Please find below patch(RFC) for implementing semvmx and semaem
as static tunable parameters.

These can be modified at boot time using command line interface.

Please comment/suggest.

cheers,
Arvind
