Personally I think you should send the next version of the new patch, and 
not based on Clark's work branch. (a working branch is just that, a 
working place to store patches, no guarantees)

I think I should warn you that we have been discussing how difficult it is 
to make an artifical load. I worry that your program just adds a thread or 
threads spinning at another prio level, (which you can do already with 
cyclictest) but not adding any real load. I wouldn't like for you to do
 a lot of work only to have it ultimately rejected.

Why don't you submit the next version of your work, and then perhaps talk 
a little more about what you intend to do, and see what other people on 
the mailing list here think about that.

Thanks
