I'm not sure an extension is needed for such a special interface, why not 
just put a ->threshold value next to the ctx->wait field and use either 
the regular wait_event() APIs with the proper condition, or 
wait_event_cmd() style APIs if you absolutely need something more complex 
to happen inside?

Should result in a much lower linecount and no scheduler changes. :-)

Thanks,
