What follows this email is a patch series for the latest version of the RSDL cpu scheduler (ie v0.29). I have addressed all bugs that I am able to reproduce in this version so if some people would be kind enough to test if there are any hidden bugs or oops lurking, it would be nice to know in anticipation of putting this back in -mm. Thanks.
