An FYI, this patch:
commit c5a0802a682dba23f92d47f0f99775aebfbe2539
Author: Andreas Schwab <schwab@redhat.com>
Date: Mon Nov 28 13:38:19 2011 +0100
Handle EAGAIN from FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI
Has been reported as causing numerous problems in Fedora & Debian. I
don't think anyone has done any serious analysis of the issue, but the
patch has been pulled from both distributions because of the
instability it's introduced.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769421
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651899
It might be worth your time to dig further into the change or pull it
from 2.15 pending a deeper investigation.
