Subject: [patch 0/3] sched: Make Priority Inheritance POSIX compliant

The current PI implementation violates POSIX scheduling semantics when
a thread is deboosted. The following patch series adresses this.

Thanks and Kudos go to Mathias Weber and Carsten Emde for analysis,
test cases and initial workaround patches.

Thanks,

	tglx
