Thanks Kees,

But I have to admit (and Ankur is now aware) that it was premature to send
the cond_resched() removal patches with this RFC. It may be a year before
we get everything straighten out with the new preempt models.

So, expect to see this patch again sometime next year ;-)

Hopefully, you can ack it then.
