Excluding debugfs, which was left intentionally that way...

The only inconsistency, I think was in the error state capture,
right? That was a last minute addition probably after I should have quit
for the day. Do you see something other than error state (and debugfs)?
I'll discuss the error state stuff with on the patch itself.

P.S. given our history on how to implement semaphore updates, I very
much appreciate your grace.
