It should be pretty easy to do in the 2.1 tree - you just need to add
PRE and POST functions to deal with the args and return vals, work out
which syscalls can block, and put the entries into the table.  The 2.0
patch won't be much help though, because I presume most of it is to do
with making epoll_* non-blocking, which isn't an issue any more.
