mainlining shenanigans
There are three different strategies to uniquely identify a futex in the
kernel:
- Private futexes: uses the pointer to mm_struct and the page address
- Shared futexes: checks if the page containing the address is a PageAnon:
- If it is, uses the same data as a private futexes
- If it isn't, uses an inode sequence number from struct inode and
the page's index
Create a selftest to check those three paths and basic wait/wake
mechanism.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
