robust futex patch for 2.6.14-rc3-rt13

Ingo,

here's a patch for the robust futex changes that match the glibc/nptl changes

for robust futexes.  The kernel and glibc now both have robustness and
priority inheritance independent.

	This patch is based off 2.6.14-rc3-rt13.

	The changes remove some duplicate defines from futex.c and glibc and

put all the defines into futex.h. The defines have also been changed a bit

to make the assembler in glibc simpler.

There is also one fix to futex.c where the first waiter on a futex waits instead of returning -EAGAIN.

	The glibc patches can be found at http://source.mvista.com/~dsingleton
