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 main changes in this cycle were:

   - a big round of FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI improvements, fixes, cleanups and
     general restructuring

   - lockdep updates such as new checks for lock_downgrade()

   - introduce the new atomic_try_cmpxchg() locking API and use it to
     optimize refcount code generation

   - ... plus misc fixes, updates and cleanups"
