Merge branch 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking fixes from Ingo Molnar: "Misc fixes: - a file-based futex fix - one more spin_unlock_wait() fix - a ww-mutex deadlock detection improvement/fix - and a raw_read_seqcount_latch() barrier fix" * 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: futex: Calculate the futex key based on a tail page for file-based futexes locking/qspinlock: Fix spin_unlock_wait() some more locking/ww_mutex: Report recursive ww_mutex locking early locking/seqcount: Re-fix raw_read_seqcount_latch()
