Merge branch 'core-locking-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
- futex performance increases: larger hashes, smarter wakeups
- mutex debugging improvements
- lots of SMP ordering documentation updates
- introduce the smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release() primitives.
(There are WIP patches that make use of them - not yet merged)
- lockdep micro-optimizations
- lockdep improvement: better cover IRQ contexts
- liblockdep at last. We'll continue to monitor how useful this is
