2.6.18-rc4-mm1 Run-time of Locking API testsuite

[Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>]

Note the non-trivial execution time difference:

soekris:~/pinlab# egrep -e 'Locking|Good' dmesg-2.6.18-rc4-*
dmesg-2.6.18-rc4-mm1-sk:[   16.044699] | Locking API testsuite:
dmesg-2.6.18-rc4-mm1-sk:[   96.083576] Good, all 218 testcases passed! |
dmesg-2.6.18-rc4-sk:[   18.563808] | Locking API testsuite:
dmesg-2.6.18-rc4-sk:[   19.693692] Good, all 218 testcases passed! |



I diffed the respective configs, saw nothing obvious in the following,
some of them look like theyd favor -mm1, if anything.

<trimming the obvious irrelevants>
