From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Sat Mar 28 2009 - 18:29:23 EST


Linus,

Please pull the latest futexes-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git futexes-for-linus

Thanks,

Ingo

------------------>
Darren Hart (7):
futex: update futex commentary
futex: additional (get|put)_futex_key() fixes
futex: add double_unlock_hb()
futex: use current->time_slack_ns for rt tasks too
futex: unlock before returning -EFAULT
futex: clean up fault logic
futex: remove the pointer math from double_unlock_hb

Ingo Molnar (1):
futex: remove the pointer math from double_unlock_hb, fix
