Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: - rtmutex cleanup & spring cleaning pass that removes ~400 lines of code - Futex simplifications & cleanups - Add debugging to the CSD code, to help track down a tenacious race (or hw problem) - Add lockdep_assert_not_held(), to allow code to require a lock to not be held, and propagate this into the ath10k driver - Misc LKMM documentation updates - Misc KCSAN updates: cleanups & documentation updates - Misc fixes and cleanups - Fix locktorture bugs with ww_mutexes * tag 'locking-core-2021-04-28' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (44 commits) kcsan: Fix printk format string static_call: Relax static_call_update() function argument type static_call: Fix unused variable warn w/o MODULE locking/rtmutex: Clean up signal handling in __rt_mutex_slowlock() locking/rtmutex: Restrict the trylock WARN_ON() to debug locking/rtmutex: Fix misleading comment in rt_mutex_postunlock() locking/rtmutex: Consolidate the fast/slowpath invocation locking/rtmutex: Make text section and inlining consistent locking/rtmutex: Move debug functions as inlines into common header locking/rtmutex: Decrapify __rt_mutex_init() locking/rtmutex: Remove pointless CONFIG_RT_MUTEXES=n stubs locking/rtmutex: Inline chainwalk depth check locking/rtmutex: Move rt_mutex_debug_task_free() to rtmutex.c locking/rtmutex: Remove empty and unused debug stubs locking/rtmutex: Consolidate rt_mutex_init() locking/rtmutex: Remove output from deadlock detector locking/rtmutex: Remove rtmutex deadlock tester leftovers locking/rtmutex: Remove rt_mutex_timed_lock() MAINTAINERS: Add myself as futex reviewer locking/mutex: Remove repeated declaration ...
