The patch was waiting for Catalin Marinas' "Remove the domain switching on ARMv6k/v7 CPUs" patch to hit Linus' tree. Now that the patch is in, the robust mutex support should be OK with the patch above (but a minor change[1] would be needed to get it into mainline).
Thanks,

Hello Folks, Thanks for the help it was very informative.
It sounds as if we're almost there and you folks have already done most of the hard work. How can someone help to get this patch into the pipeline? It is basically a blocker for my work on the ARM at this point. I'd love to see this make it in before Linaro 11.05 comes out if at all possible. What is the right way to pursue it?
I'll take care of including it into the linaro 11.05 kernel. Someone (Anton?) should also push it into mainline via Russell.
