This conversation has been *really* long, and I haven't had time to look 
at the patch yet. But looking at the amount of changes, and the amount of 
even more changes talked in this thread, there's a very slim chance that 
I'll ACK the eventfd code.
You may want to consider a solution that does not litter eventfd code that 
much.
