Gah, its one of those benchmarks where if you rebuild+reboot the numbers
change. Latest patch here..

Subject: sched: Rewrite wait_task_inactive()
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
Date: Wed Sep 21 21:34:05 CEST 2011

Instead of using a combination of busy-waits and sleeps to poll a
task's state, ensure we get a notification and properly block.

This makes preempt notifiers unconditional, but since pretty much
everybody already has those enabled in their config it shouldn't be a
big deal (I hope).

The notification is somewhat horrid since the sched_out notifier is
called with rq->lock held and interrupts disabled, so we can't
actually do the wakeup from there. However the sched_in notifier is
called without holding rq->lock and with interrupts enable.

So what we do is we register a preempt notifier on the task we want,
that notifier will move itself to the next task passed into the
sched_out function, the sched_in notification of the next task, will do
the actual work... most horrid.
