Hum, you mean that we'll have to have three (3) versions of socket event 
notification in our stack drivers:
- calling BONE kernel's notify_select_event() when compiling for BONE kernels,
- calling our own r5_notify_select_event() when compiling for vanilla R5 
kernels,
- calling your new OBOS notify_select_event() when we'll compile for our OBOS 
kernel?

However, we can move to be source compatible with your new notification 
mecanism, and implement it for both vanilla r5 and BONE kernels...

Can you explain what's your new select even notification api is?
