Huh! Indeed! The condition "gpm < 0" is encountered all the time, so
my patch ends up turning gpm off right away. But now I'm lost: I don't
understand what delete_gpm_wait_descriptor and add_gpm_wait_descriptor
do, because if I remove the call to add_gpm_wait_descriptor, the gpm
support seems to still work just fine.
Nick, do you have an idea what's going on?
