Ok. Should I change to that just HZ and

call set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) before the schedule_timeout()?

:-) For one thing, I have used it a lot now and secondly isn't it easier
to know that VAS_CASTOUT_REQ bit is set to 1 without worrying about its
bit position? When debugging, yes we have to ensure VAS_CASTOUT_REQ is
properly defined and we have to work out value in "val".

Ok. Should not happen now (or even with the fast thread-wake up code)
since only the kernel should be closing the windows - so its really a
bug.  Will change to EBUSY though.
