Pull locking updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of locking fixes and updates:

   - Untangle the header spaghetti which causes build failures in
     various situations caused by the lockdep additions to seqcount to
     validate that the write side critical sections are non-preemptible.

   - The seqcount associated lock debug addons which were blocked by the
     above fallout.

     seqcount writers contrary to seqlock writers must be externally
     serialized, which usually happens via locking - except for strict
     per CPU seqcounts. As the lock is not part of the seqcount, lockdep
     cannot validate that the lock is held.

     This new debug mechanism adds the concept of associated locks.
     sequence count has now lock type variants and corresponding
     initializers which take a pointer to the associated lock used for
     writer serialization. If lockdep is enabled the pointer is stored
     and write_seqcount_begin() has a lockdep assertion to validate that
     the lock is held.

     Aside of the type and the initializer no other code changes are
     required at the seqcount usage sites. The rest of the seqcount API
     is unchanged and determines the type at compile time with the help
     of _Generic which is possible now that the minimal GCC version has
     been moved up.

     Adding this lockdep coverage unearthed a handful of seqcount bugs
     which have been addressed already independent of this.

     While generally useful this comes with a Trojan Horse twist: On RT
     kernels the write side critical section can become preemtible if
     the writers are serialized by an associated lock, which leads to
     the well known reader preempts writer livelock. RT prevents this by
     storing the associated lock pointer independent of lockdep in the
     seqcount and changing the reader side to block on the lock when a
     reader detects that a writer is in the write side critical section.

   - Conversion of seqcount usage sites to associated types and
     initializers"

+Sequence counters with associated locks (``seqcount_LOCKTYPE_t``)
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+As discussed at :ref:`seqcount_t`, sequence count write side critical
+sections must be serialized and non-preemptible. This variant of
+sequence counters associate the lock used for writer serialization at
+initialization time, which enables lockdep to validate that the write
+side critical sections are properly serialized.
+
+This lock association is a NOOP if lockdep is disabled and has neither
+storage nor runtime overhead. If lockdep is enabled, the lock pointer is
+stored in struct seqcount and lockdep's "lock is held" assertions are
+injected at the beginning of the write side critical section to validate
+that it is properly protected.
+
+For lock types which do not implicitly disable preemption, preemption
+protection is enforced in the write side function.
+
+The following sequence counters with associated locks are defined:
+
+  - ``seqcount_spinlock_t``
+  - ``seqcount_raw_spinlock_t``
+  - ``seqcount_rwlock_t``
+  - ``seqcount_mutex_t``
+  - ``seqcount_ww_mutex_t``
+
+The plain seqcount read and write APIs branch out to the specific
+seqcount_LOCKTYPE_t implementation at compile-time. This avoids kernel
+API explosion per each new seqcount LOCKTYPE.
+
+Initialization (replace "LOCKTYPE" with one of the supported locks)::
+
+	/* dynamic */
+	seqcount_LOCKTYPE_t foo_seqcount;
+	seqcount_LOCKTYPE_init(&foo_seqcount, &lock);
+
+	/* static */
+	static seqcount_LOCKTYPE_t foo_seqcount =
+		SEQCNT_LOCKTYPE_ZERO(foo_seqcount, &lock);
+
+	/* C99 struct init */
+	struct {
+		.seq   = SEQCNT_LOCKTYPE_ZERO(foo.seq, &lock),
+	} foo;
+
+Write path: same as in :ref:`seqcount_t`, while running from a context
+with the associated LOCKTYPE lock acquired.
+
+Read path: same as in :ref:`seqcount_t`.
