Linus Torvalds 6cdf89b1ca Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The tree got pretty big in this development cycle, but the net effect
  is pretty good:

    115 files changed, 673 insertions(+), 1522 deletions(-)

  The main changes were:

   - Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
     primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
     preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
     optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
     Christian Borntraeger)

   - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
     clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
     kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)

   - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)

   - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
     interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
     get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
     sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
     not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Improve the rtmutex code a bit, in light of recent long lived
     bugs/races. (Thomas Gleixner)

   - Misc fixes, cleanups"
