Ok. Tried testing different-approach-to-smp-nice-problem against the
transition release 2.6.14-rc2-mm1 but it doesn't apply. Am testing
against 2.6.15-mm3 right now. Will let you know.


Doesn't appear to help if I am analysing the graphs right. Martin?

Nope. still broken.

Also tried to back out the original patch against the 2.6.15-mm3 tree
but that also won't apply (2 rejects). Peter?
