Subject[tip PATCH v7 2/9] RFC: futex: futex_top_waiter()
DateFri, 03 Apr 2009 13:39:42 -0700
Improve legibility by wrapping finding the top waiter in a function.  This
will be used by the follow-on patches for enabling requeue pi.

Changelog:
V7: -Minor kernel doc comment update
V6: -Shortened function length after review from tglx
-Corrected kernel-doc formatting
V4: -Simplified logic in the hb loop
-Return the futex_q as the task can be had from there if needed
-Updated comments and dropped the -safe iterator per review from tglx
V3: -Comment linewidth cleanup
V1: -Initial version
