Hi Lai,

I was about to iterate again on that patchset but I would certainly be
happy if you take it given the amount of stuff in my TODO list.

I suggest you to take this branch:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git
	core/workqueue-v6

It's a big rebase on top of latest -rc1.

Also I suggest you to use "--patience" on git diff/log/format-patch etc...
because the changes contain big code move (like the sysfs part) that default
diff doesn't display well.

I can still help you on this patchset BTW if you need. I believe that
delayed workqueues weren't well handled with it, maybe I should
check further if they need some more treatment.

Thanks.
