These patches were written by Maneesh Soni. Since the Read-Copy Update infrastructure has not been accepted into the mainline kernel yet (although there were murmurings of it being acceptable) you will need to apply those first. Here they are, apply in this order. Too big to post inline text though. These are provided against 2.5.36-mm1.

There has been quite a bit of testing done on this and it has proven quite stable. If anyone wants to do any additional testing that would be great.
Thanks.
