Yeah, but I wonder why. Qiang, what made you write this patch?
afaict, there is only a single __add_wait_queue_entry_tail_exclusive()
user in the entire tree (two after this patch). I'm thinking it would be
much better to kill of that one user and remove the entire function.
something like the completely untested thing below, please double check.
