Subject: [PATCH v3 00/15] futex: More futex2 bits

Hi!

New version of the futex2 patches. Futex2 is a new interface to the same 'old'
futex core. An attempt to get away from the multiplex syscall and add a little
room for extentions.

Changes since v2:
 - Rebased to v6.6-rc
 - New FUTEX_STRICT flag (Andre)
 - Reordered futex_size() helper (tglx)
 - Updated some comments (tglx)
 - Folded some tags

My plan is to push the first 10 patches (all the syscalls) into
tip/locking/core this afternoon. All those patches have plenty review tags
including from Thomas who is the actual maintainer of this lot :-)

This should be plenty for Jens to get a move on with the io-uring stuff.

I'm holding off on the NUMA bits for now, because I want to write some
userspace for it since there is some confusion on that -- but I seem to keep
getting side-tracked :/

Patches also available at:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git locking/core
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git locking/futex

Where the locking/core thing is the first 10 patches only, and barring Link
tags (which I'll harvest from this posting), will be what I'll push out to tip.
