  • The enhancement as asked for by Yasunori: if msgmni is set to a negative
    value, register it back into the ipcns notifier chain.

    A new interface has been added to the notification mechanism:
    notifier_chain_cond_register() registers a notifier block only if not already
    registered. With that new interface we avoid taking care of the states
    changes in procfs.

  • There is separate notifier header, but no separate notifier .c file.

    Extract notifier code out of kernel/sys.c which will remain for
    misc syscalls I hope. Merge kernel/die_notifier.c into kernel/notifier.c.
