These are patches designed to improve system responsiveness and interactivity with specific emphasis on the desktop, but suitable to any commodity hardware workload.

This is a resync from 3.4-ck3. However, the broken out tarballs above also include the upgradeable rwlocks patch, and a modification of the global runqueue in BFS to use the urwlocks. These are NOT applied in the -ck1 patch, but can be applied manually at the end of the series as indicated by the series file. It is currently of no demonstrable performance advantage OR detriment in its current state, but is code for future development.

Enjoy!
