OK so first, I managed to crash latest 2.6.32.x in less than one minute
using leapcrash and I cannot crash it anymore after an hour with your
patches applied.
I'll try to develop a small futex-based PoC to test the other reproducer,
then I'll duplicate the tests on 2.6.27.
Looks good so far.
Thanks,
Willy
