The epoll patch series breaks nscd in some odd way.  After it's started
in the /etc/rc* scripts, the rest of boot proceeds very slowly, smells like
nscd calls are hitting timeouts.  Boot time went from ~1 minute to ~10 mins.

nscd is Fedora Rawhide nscd-2.9.90-3.x86_64, in case that matters...

Also, the series isn't bisectable right where it matters most, complaining
about implicit definitions of wake_up_nested...
