This patch adds a new robust_list() syscall. The current syscall can't be expanded to cover the following use case, so a new one is needed. This new syscall allows users to set multiple robust lists per process and to have either 32bit or 64bit pointers in the list.Last time a whole list of short comings of the current robust scheme were laid bare. I feel we should address all that if we're going to create a new scheme.
