Merge branch 'core-locking-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest changes:
- add lockdep support for seqcount/seqlocks structures, this
unearthed both bugs and required extra annotation.
- move the various kernel locking primitives to the new
kernel/locking/ directory"
