However what you can do is to ask Len again when he's back. Ultimately
it is his decision and he might decide that he can deal with AML lockdep
issues longer term.

For instance these changes could go into linux-next until the 2.6.29
merge window .. Len should be back by then, and we should have a much
better idea what kind of problems may exist, if any..

Sorry I'm not convinced that linux-next testing can resolve that.
It doesn't really have enough hardware/tester coverage. Also linux-next
is really only for stuff that is going to be merged, and from
my current perspective it's not.

Don't think it makes all that much sense to resubmit the completion
patch though. It's unrelated to the other patches anyways (not sure
why you mix them together)

It's all related ..

I don't think it is. You keep claiming that but it's just not true.
You have not so far brought up a single argument why the semaphores
should be changed to completions.
