Wasn't there a decision at a kernel summit that anything which adds
new syscalls should have a test program included so that architecture
maintainers can test the functionality on their architectures?

I seem to remember that it came up because the merged timerfd was a
pile of utter crap which didn't have a hope in hells chance of working.

So... where is the new timerfd test program?
