So I hate this patch, it adds a whole ton of duplication and litter for
no real reason afaict. For instance you could've just added an
wake_flags argument to swake_up_locked(), there's not *that* many users
-- unlike complete().

And for complete() instead of fully duplicating the function (always a
bad idea) you could've made complete_flags() and implemented complete()
using that, or something.

Anyway, let me go (finally) have a look at Chen's patch, since that
might render all this moot.
