Re: [GIT PULL] Re: REGRESSION: Performance regressions from switching anon_vma->lock to mutex

So user-return notifiers ought to be the ideal platform for that, 
right? We don't even have to touch the scheduler: anything that 
schedules will eventually return to user-space, at which point the 
RCU GC magic can run.

That's not necessarily true. Consider a router which only routes and never runs
user space. You would starve it. Given it's somewhat obscure, but it's possible.
