Hi, I see this patch is not included in ltp-full-20100331, will it be 
accepted in the future? 

I tested msgctl10 testcase on RHEL5(2.6.18) and RHEL6(>2.6.31),
Since /proc/sys/kernel/msgmni has increased from 10 (RHEL5) to 
thousands (RHEL6), the testing time will be several hours long.
Applied this patch, the testing time can be lowed down to minutes.

Thanks,
Caspar
