But Ma, I don't *want* to write a filesystem!
Linus, Al, is there an easier way to do this? I stole this from sockfs,
but I balked at another 50 lines for a proper inode creation, so I just use
the same dentry and inode over and over.
It's still an awful lot of irrelevant code: what can I cut?

/* Signal allows caller to avoid the race which would occur if they
set the sigio stuff up afterwards. */

struct page *page,
int offset,
int signal)
{
int fd;
struct futex_q *q;
struct file *filp;
if (signal < 0 || signal > _NSIG)
return -EINVAL;
fd = get_unused_fd();
if (fd < 0)
return fd;
filp = get_empty_filp();
if (!filp) {
put_unused_fd(fd);
return -ENFILE;
}
filp->f_op = &futex_fops;
filp->f_dentry = dget(futex_dentry);
if (signal) {
filp->f_owner.pid = current->pid;
filp->f_owner.uid = current->uid;
filp->f_owner.euid = current->euid;
filp->f_owner.signum = signal;
}
q = kmalloc(sizeof(*q), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!q) {
put_unused_fd(fd);
put_filp(filp);
return -ENOMEM;
}
/* Initialize queue structure */
init_waitqueue_head(&q->waiters);
filp->private_data = q;
/* Go for it... */
queue_me(head, q, page, offset, fd, filp);
/* Now we map fd to filp, so userspace can access it */
fd_install(fd, filp);
return 0;
