[PATCH] 2.5.14 futex update

[Rusty Russell]

Linus, please apply.

	This genericized interface makes futexes useable for pthreads.

Name: Futex Update
Author: Rusty Russell
Section: Misc
Status: Beta

D: This changes futex semantics to a simple "sleep if this address
D: equals this value" interface, which is more convenient for building
D: other primitives.  It also adds a timeout value.
D:
D: Example library can be found at:
D:    http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/futex-2.0.tar.gz
