Please submit them once you had the time to ensure that they are ready and
produce no warnings on your system(s) with debugging enabled.
To help out I can stage them for you in a branch within the scheduler tree
if you think there are spurious warnings - as long as you fix and address
any bug reports and review feedback received in a timely fashion. I'll
send it upstream once the debug code has settled down and doesn't produce
false warnings.
Also, just to make it clear, as I mentioned it in my previous mail: until
the debug code becomes upstream worthy and converge, consider all your
__this_cpu patches NAK-ed by me.
Thanks,
Ingo
