No, the problem is that the BKL shouldn't be a semaphore at all. Performance fixed. After that, it's *purely* a correctness issue, and then we might as well be fair and not allow the stealing of semaphores from under waiters at ALL. Which is what Matthews original code did. In other words, current -git is fine, and was already confirmed by Sven to fix the bug (before *any* of your patches were), and was earlier confirmed to fix the AIM7 performance regression (better than *any* of your patches were). So I fixed the problems last night already. Stop wasting everybody's time.
