Merge tag 'locks-v3.15-2' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux
Pull file locking fixes from Jeff Layton: "File locking related bugfixes for v3.15 (pile #2) - fix for a long-standing bug in __break_lease that can cause soft lockups - renaming of file-private locks to "open file description" locks, and the command macros to more visually distinct names The fix for __break_lease is also in the pile of patches for which Bruce sent a pull request, but I assume that your merge procedure will handle that correctly. For the other patches, I don't like the fact that we need to rename this stuff at this late stage, but it should be settled now (hopefully)" * tag 'locks-v3.15-2' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux: locks: rename FL_FILE_PVT and IS_FILE_PVT to use "*_OFDLCK" instead locks: rename file-private locks to "open file description locks" locks: allow __break_lease to sleep even when break_time is 0
