As per the previous email; these patches only enable the syscall part of
64bit futexes, they do not convert the core, and per futex_flags_valid()
(patches 4 and 13), explicitly disallow having FUTEX2_64 set.


- /* Only 32bit futexes are implemented -- for now */
- if ((flags & FLAGS_SIZE_MASK) != FLAGS_SIZE_32)
+ /* 64bit futexes aren't implemented -- yet */
+ if ((flags & FLAGS_SIZE_MASK) == FLAGS_SIZE_64)
return false;
