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

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "So we have a laundry list of locking subsystem changes:

   - continuing barrier API and code improvements

   - futex enhancements

   - atomics API improvements

   - pvqspinlock enhancements: in particular lock stealing and adaptive
     spinning

   - qspinlock micro-enhancements"

* 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  futex: Allow FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with FUTEX_WAIT op
  futex: Cleanup the goto confusion in requeue_pi()
  futex: Remove pointless put_pi_state calls in requeue()
  futex: Document pi_state refcounting in requeue code
  futex: Rename free_pi_state() to put_pi_state()
  futex: Drop refcount if requeue_pi() acquired the rtmutex
  locking/barriers, arch: Remove ambiguous statement in the smp_store_mb() documentation
  lcoking/barriers, arch: Use smp barriers in smp_store_release()
  locking/cmpxchg, arch: Remove tas() definitions
  locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning
  locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing
  locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics
  sched/core, locking: Document Program-Order guarantees
  locking, sched: Introduce smp_cond_acquire() and use it
  locking/pvqspinlock, x86: Optimize the PV unlock code path
  locking/qspinlock: Avoid redundant read of next pointer
  locking/qspinlock: Prefetch the next node cacheline
  locking/qspinlock: Use _acquire/_release() versions of cmpxchg() & xchg()
  atomics: Add test for atomic operations with _relaxed variants

+ *
+ * Equivalent to using smp_load_acquire() on the condition variable but employs

+ * The control dependency provides a LOAD->STORE order, the additional RMB
