Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- More gradual enhancements to atomic ops: new atomic*_read_ctrl()
ops, synchronize atomic_{read,set}() ordering requirements between
architectures, add atomic_long_t bitops. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add _{relaxed|acquire|release}() variants for inc/dec atomics and
use them in various locking primitives: mutex, rtmutex, mcs, rwsem.
This enables weakly ordered architectures (such as arm64) to make
use of more locking related optimizations. (Davidlohr Bueso)
- Implement atomic[64]_{inc,dec}_relaxed() on ARM. (Will Deacon)
- Futex kernel data cache footprint micro-optimization. (Rasmus
Villemoes)
- pvqspinlock runtime overhead micro-optimization. (Waiman Long)
- misc smaller fixlets"
