Have you reviewed the hugetlbfs and hugetlbpage-backed-shm patches?
That code is still requiring CAP_IPC_LOCK, although I suspect it
would be better to allow hugetlbfs mmap to be purely administered
by file permissions.
Can we delete the specialty syscalls now?
I was lead to believe that Linus designed them, so he may be emotionally attatched
to them, but I think there would be few others that would cry over the loss ...
