Hi Peter

The recent fix that Ingo posted for the changes to pipe code affects 
significantly the behaviour of the mainline scheduler and should be 
incorporated as soon as possible. Staircase has undergone substantial 
revision in response to this change, fortunately to its advantage removing 
all that extra code I added to your last plugsched version. Anyway here is a 
patch committing Ingo's pipe signalling changes, and the update to staircase 
11.3 in line with those changes. None of this changes the way the other cpu 
schedulers behave but it may be worth investigating how the pipe changes 
affect the behaviour of the ones you maintain.

Cheers,
Con
