good catch! A quick preliminary review of your patch indicates it's
fine - and it might be v2.6.23 material.

there's a symmetric bug in kernel/compat_futex.c too.

True. I'll update the patch and send it again with the Acked-bys.

thanks! Logistics-wise: given that v2.6.22 has this same bug too, it's
not a .23 regression per se and could in theory be merged after the
2.6.23 release too, into 2.6.23.1.

Here we go. Tested with current git and latest glibc tst-robust8 on
s390-64, native and compat.

excellent! This patch too looks good to me. I booted and tested it on
x86 too (32-bit-native, 64-bit-native and 32-bit-compat-on-64-bit.)
