   This version (courtesy of Dave Grothe at GCOM) uses up/down
   semaphore instead of read/write spinlocks.
   
Oh really?

   +static int (*do_putpmsg) (int, void *, void *, int, int) = NULL;
   +static int (*do_getpmsg) (int, void *, void *, int, int) = NULL;
   +
   +static rwlock_t streams_call_lock = RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED;
           ^^^^^^^^
   +
   +long asmlinkage sys_putpmsg(int fd, void *ctlptr, void *datptr, int band, int flags)
   +{

        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
