Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes are:

   - 'qspinlock' support, enabled on x86: queued spinlocks - these are
     now the spinlock variant used by x86 as they outperform ticket
     spinlocks in every category.  (Waiman Long)

   - 'pvqspinlock' support on x86: paravirtualized variant of queued
     spinlocks.  (Waiman Long, Peter Zijlstra)

   - 'qrwlock' support, enabled on x86: queued rwlocks.  Similar to
     queued spinlocks, they are now the variant used by x86:

       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y

   - various lockdep fixlets

   - various locking primitives cleanups, further WRITE_ONCE()
     propagation"
