This is a patch from Manfred. Required to make 2.6.35-rc3 work.

My current version of the patch is below.

I believe that Luca has still seen problems with this patch applied so
its current status is "stuck, awaiting developments".

Is that a correct determination?

I would propose that you forward a patch to Linus - either the one you have in your tree or the v2 that I've just posted. With stock 2.6.35-rc3, my semtimedop() stress tests produces an oops or an invalid return value (i.e.:semtimedop() returns with "1") within a fraction of a second.

With either of the patches applied, my test apps show the expected behavior.
