Subject: -V1

this patch-queue converts 66% of all semaphore uses in 2.6.15-git9 over 
to mutexes. The conversion was done via automatic tools, and the result 
was verified automatically, and we reviewed them manually too. The known 
"is not a mutex" list of semaphores compiled in the -rt tree for the 
past year was automatically added to the do-not-convert list as well.

the GIT tree can be pulled from:

  master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mingo/mutex-2.6.git/

or:

  rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mingo/mutex-2.6.git/

(once master has resynced)

or the patch-queue can be downloaded from:

it has been build-tested with allyesconfig, and booted on x86.
