Linus Torvalds d057190925 Merge branch 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The locking department delivers:

   - A rather large and intrusive bundle of fixes to address serious
     performance regressions introduced by the new rwsem / mcs
     technology.  Simpler solutions have been discussed, but they would
     have been ugly bandaids with more risk than doing the right thing.

   - Make the rwsem spin on owner technology opt-in for architectures
     and enable it only on the known to work ones.

   - A few fixes to the lockdep userspace library"
