    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull core locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
     "The biggest change is the rwsem lock-steal improvements, both to the
      assembly optimized and the spinlock based variants.
    
      The other notable change is the clean up of the seqlock implementation
      to be based on the seqcount infrastructure.
    
      The rest is assorted smaller debuggability, cleanup and continued -rt
      locking changes."
