Ingo, Peter,

What exactly does WF_SYNC do?   Does it try to give the waker's CPU
immediately to the waked?

If that doesn't work (e.g. in this patch the wake up is done with a
spin lock held) does it do anything?

Does it give a hint that the waked task should be scheduled on this
CPU at the next scheduling point?

Thanks,
Miklos
