Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Various updates:

   - Futex scalability improvements: remove page lock use for shared
     futex get_futex_key(), which speeds up 'perf bench futex hash'
     benchmarks by over 40% on a 60-core Westmere.  This makes anon-mem
     shared futexes perform close to private futexes.  (Mel Gorman)

   - lockdep hash collision detection and fix (Alfredo Alvarez
     Fernandez)

   - lockdep testing enhancements (Alfredo Alvarez Fernandez)

   - robustify lockdep init by using hlists (Andrew Morton, Andrey
     Ryabinin)

   - mutex and csd_lock micro-optimizations (Davidlohr Bueso)

   - small x86 barriers tweaks (Michael S Tsirkin)

   - qspinlock updates (Waiman Long)"
