Is this ok? I don't know if it is benign to use in_interrupt() here. I took this idea from the execute_in_process_context() implementation. If this is ok, should I rebase them on your two pm_qos patches (plists and the kzalloc removal)? Did you already thought about some debugging stuff that would suffice the android needs? I kind of thought about either registerieng some notifier callback or using the perf/tracing infrastructure. But I have not looked into it yet.
