Just got back from a week vacation and am burning through mail as fast 
as I can :-) Haven't had a look yet, but does this test use librttest.h? 
  I suspect not.  We'll need to adapt it to run within the existing ltp 
real-time testing framework, which includes things like buffered output 
as well as mlocking support.

Lastly, I'm not sure this test does anything effectively different than 
prio-wake, already in the tree.  My other concerns with the test are its 
explicit 1ms preemption criteria (as Steven described it anyway).  We 
are trying to move away from criteria being inherent in measurement 
tests, and 1 ms seems like an awfully long priority inversion to be an 
acceptable criteria to many users.

Steven, am I missing something conceptually here?
