Linus Torvalds 8e9a2dba86 Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - Another attempt at enabling cross-release lockdep dependency
     tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
     with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)

   - Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
     open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
     method. (Kirill Tkhai)

   - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
     READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
     driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)

   - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
     strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
     being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
     READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)

   - Various micro-optimizations:

        - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
        - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
        - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

   - ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen
     Gross, Miguel Bernal Marin)"
