Hi,

Two questions:

1. I notice that in the GIT version of core/ucm.c, the trunk updates below 
were not taken into the 2.6.17 GIT.  Is there a reason?

Convert file mutex from a semaphore to a real mutex for 2.6.16.

file_mutex is really a struct mutex, so use mutex_init() instead of 
init_MUTEX().

2. Missing mutex protection in ucm.c for list_empty call.  Is there a reason?

GIT: 
static unsigned int ib_ucm_poll(struct file *filp,
                                struct poll_table_struct *wait)
{
        struct ib_ucm_file *file = filp->private_data;
        unsigned int mask = 0;

        poll_wait(filp, &file->poll_wait, wait);

        if (!list_empty(&file->events))
                mask = POLLIN | POLLRDNORM;

        return mask;
}

Trunk:
static unsigned int ib_ucm_poll(struct file *filp,
                                struct poll_table_struct *wait)
{
        struct ib_ucm_file *file = filp->private_data;
        unsigned int mask = 0;

        poll_wait(filp, &file->poll_wait, wait);

        mutex_lock(&file->file_mutex);
        if (!list_empty(&file->events))
                mask = POLLIN | POLLRDNORM;
        mutex_unlock(&file->file_mutex);

        return mask;
}
