Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle were: - a big round of FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI improvements, fixes, cleanups and general restructuring - lockdep updates such as new checks for lock_downgrade() - introduce the new atomic_try_cmpxchg() locking API and use it to optimize refcount code generation - ... plus misc fixes, updates and cleanups" * 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (38 commits) MAINTAINERS: Add FUTEX SUBSYSTEM futex: Clarify mark_wake_futex memory barrier usage futex: Fix small (and harmless looking) inconsistencies futex: Avoid freeing an active timer rtmutex: Plug preempt count leak in rt_mutex_futex_unlock() rtmutex: Fix more prio comparisons rtmutex: Fix PI chain order integrity sched,tracing: Update trace_sched_pi_setprio() sched/rtmutex: Refactor rt_mutex_setprio() rtmutex: Clean up sched/deadline/rtmutex: Dont miss the dl_runtime/dl_period update sched/rtmutex/deadline: Fix a PI crash for deadline tasks rtmutex: Deboost before waking up the top waiter locking/ww-mutex: Limit stress test to 2 seconds locking/atomic: Fix atomic_try_cmpxchg() semantics lockdep: Fix per-cpu static objects futex: Drop hb->lock before enqueueing on the rtmutex futex: Futex_unlock_pi() determinism futex: Rework futex_lock_pi() to use rt_mutex_*_proxy_lock() futex,rt_mutex: Restructure rt_mutex_finish_proxy_lock() ...
