It consists of the following 19 patches:

  add-atomic-xchg.patch
  add-function-typecheck.patch

  mutex-generic-asm-implementations.patch
  mutex-asm-mutex.h-i386.patch
  mutex-asm-mutex.h-x86_64.patch
  mutex-asm-mutex.h-arm.patch
  mutex-arch-mutex-h.patch
  mutex-core.patch

  mutex-docs.patch
  mutex-debug.patch
  mutex-debug-more.patch

  sem2mutex-xfs.patch
  sem2mutex-vfs-i-sem.patch
  sem2mutex-vfs-i-sem-more.patch
  sem2mutex-simple-ones.patch

  sem2completion-sx8.patch
  sem2completion-cpu5wdt.patch
  sem2completion-ide-gendev.patch
  sem2completion-loop.patch

the patches should work fine on every Linux architecture. They can also 
be downloaded from:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/generic-mutex-subsystem/

Changes since -V10:

  38 files changed, 99 insertions(+), 94 deletions(-)

- export mutex_trylock() too (reported by Antti Salmela)

- fixed attribution From: lines

- finished the i_sem -> i_mutex conversion: fixed up all affected 
  documentation as well, and rarely used code. It builds fine under
  allyesconfig.

- DECLARE_MUTEX -> DEFINE_MUTEX in cpufreq

- small cleanups
