Instead of having a blocked futex_waitv() waiting on an fd (maybe a generic eventfd() or a new futex2fd())
would be a better interface?

Like bring back FUTEX_FD? (which was removed back in 2.6.25)

Ah, ok, yes something like that.

But as that was removed because of races, but might not be a good idea to bring it back.
