Subject: [PATCH 5/5] sched,futex: Provide delayed wakeup list
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>
Original patchset: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/14/118
This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple
wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention
by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks.
Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and
thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks
and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid
waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets
for the same task.
This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code
and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until
after we've released the hash bucket locks. This avoids the newly
woken tasks from immediately getting stuck on the hb->lock.

Please note that in the original thread there was some debate
about spurious wakeups (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/17/31), so
you can consider this more of an RFC patch if folks believe that
this functionality is incomplete/buggy.
