Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"So we have a laundry list of locking subsystem changes:
- continuing barrier API and code improvements
- futex enhancements
- atomics API improvements
- pvqspinlock enhancements: in particular lock stealing and adaptive
spinning
- qspinlock micro-enhancements"
* 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
futex: Allow FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with FUTEX_WAIT op
futex: Cleanup the goto confusion in requeue_pi()
futex: Remove pointless put_pi_state calls in requeue()
futex: Document pi_state refcounting in requeue code
futex: Rename free_pi_state() to put_pi_state()
futex: Drop refcount if requeue_pi() acquired the rtmutex
locking/barriers, arch: Remove ambiguous statement in the smp_store_mb() documentation
lcoking/barriers, arch: Use smp barriers in smp_store_release()
locking/cmpxchg, arch: Remove tas() definitions
locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning
locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing
locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics
sched/core, locking: Document Program-Order guarantees
locking, sched: Introduce smp_cond_acquire() and use it
locking/pvqspinlock, x86: Optimize the PV unlock code path
locking/qspinlock: Avoid redundant read of next pointer
locking/qspinlock: Prefetch the next node cacheline
locking/qspinlock: Use _acquire/_release() versions of cmpxchg() & xchg()
atomics: Add test for atomic operations with _relaxed variants
