This following commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=fdf8cb0909b531f9ae8f9b9d7e4eb35ba3505f07 un-inlined a low-level rwsem function, but did not mark it as __sched. The result is that it now shows up as thread wchan (which also affects /proc/profile stats). The following simple patch fixes this by properly marking rwsem_down_failed_common() as a __sched function. Also in this patch, which is up for discussion, marks down_read() and down_write() proper as __sched. For profiling, it is pretty much useless to know that a semaphore is beig help - it is necessary to know _which_ one. By going up another frame on the stack, the information becomes much more useful. In summary, the below change to lib/rwsem.c should be applied; the changes to kernel/rwsem.c could be applied if other kernel hackers agree with my proposal that down_read()/down_write() in the profile is not enough.
