This patch is a prerequisite for futex requeue_pi. It basically splits
rt_mutex_slowlock() right down the middle, just before the first call
to schedule(). It further adds helper functions which make use of the
split and provide the rt-mutex preliminaries for futex requeue_pi.

The proper behavior to store task's pid and get this task later is to get the
struct pid pointer and get the task with the pid_task() call.
Make it for rt_mutex_waiter->deadlock_task_pid field.

The recent PRIVATE and REQUEUE_PI changes to the futex code made it hard to
read. Tidy it up.

This reverts commit d0aa7a70bf03b9de9e995ab272293be1f7937822.
It not only introduced user space visible changes to the futex syscall,
it is also non-functional and there is no way to fix it proper before
the 2.6.22 release.
The breakage report ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/12/17 ) went
unanswered, and unfortunately it turned out that the concept is not
feasible at all. It violates the rtmutex semantics badly by introducing
a virtual owner, which hacks around the coupling of the user-space
pi_futex and the kernel internal rt_mutex representation.
At the moment the only safe option is to remove it fully as it contains
user-space visible changes to broken kernel code, which we do not want
to expose in the 2.6.22 release.
The patch reverts the original patch mostly 1:1, but contains a couple
of trivial manual cleanups which were necessary due to patches, which
touched the same area of code later.
Verified against the glibc tests and my own PI futex tests.

This patch provides the futex_requeue_pi functionality, which allows some
threads waiting on a normal futex to be requeued on the wait-queue of a
PI-futex.
This provides an optimization, already used for (normal) futexes, to be used
with the PI-futexes.
This optimization is currently used by the glibc in pthread_broadcast, when
using "normal" mutexes. With futex_requeue_pi, it can be used with
PRIO_INHERIT mutexes too.

RT-mutex tester: scriptable tester for rt mutexes, which allows userspace
scripting of mutex unit-tests (and dynamic tests as well), using the actual
