[RFC][PATCH] alternative implementation of Priority Lists

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>]

This patch adds priority lists to the kernel, see this thread:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=111289685000001&r=1

It was thoroughly tested in userspace, you can get the test here:
http://tv-sign.ru/update/plist.tgz

It lacks documentation, so it is for review only.

Notes:

	This patch adds 2 structures: pl_head and pl_node.
	I think it is good for typechecking.

	plist_add() does not require that the new node is
	initialized (except ->prio).

	no plist_del_init(), plist_del() does initialization
	on the deleted node.

	no plist_entry(), use container_of()


The code snippet from original patch:

	struct plist *next1, *next2, *curr1, *curr2;
	struct rt_mutex_waiter *w;

	plist_for_each_safe(curr1, curr2, next1, next2, &old_owner->pi_waiters) {
		w = plist_entry(curr2, struct rt_mutex_waiter, pi_list);
		if (w->lock == lock) {
			plist_del(&w->pi_list, &old_owner->pi_waiters);
			plist_init(&w->pi_list, w->task->prio);
			plist_add(&w->pi_list, &new_owner->pi_waiters);

This becomes:

	struct rt_mutex_waiter *w, tmp;

	plist_for_each_entry_safe(w, tmp, &old_owner->pi_waiters) {
		if (w->lock == lock) {
			plist_del(&w->pi_list, &old_owner->pi_waiters);
			w->pi_list.prio = w->task->prio;
			plist_add(&w->pi_list, &new_owner->pi_waiters);

Please comment.
