Thomas Gleixner 9741ef964d [PATCH] futex: check and validate timevals
The futex timeval is not checked for correctness.  The change does not
break existing applications as the timeval is supplied by glibc (and glibc
always passes a correct value), but the glibc-internal tests for this
functionality fail.

Andrew Morton ec7e15d648 [PATCH] compat_sys_futex() warning fix
kernel/futex_compat.c: In function `compat_sys_futex':
kernel/futex_compat.c:140: warning: passing arg 1 of `do_futex' makes integer from pointer without a cast
kernel/futex_compat.c:140: warning: passing arg 5 of `do_futex' makes integer from pointer without a cast

Not sure what Ingo was thinking of here.  Put the casts back in.
