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

Pull locking and misc x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Lots of changes in this cycle - in part because locking/core attracted
  a number of related x86 low level work which was easier to handle in a
  single tree:

   - Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model updates (Alan Stern, Paul E.
     McKenney, Andrea Parri)

   - lockdep scalability improvements and micro-optimizations (Waiman
     Long)

   - rwsem improvements (Waiman Long)

   - spinlock micro-optimization (Matthew Wilcox)

   - qspinlocks: Provide a liveness guarantee (more fairness) on x86.
     (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Add support for relative references in jump tables on arm64, x86
     and s390 to optimize jump labels (Ard Biesheuvel, Heiko Carstens)

   - Be a lot less permissive on weird (kernel address) uaccess faults
     on x86: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses (Jann
     Horn)

   - macrofy x86 asm statements to un-confuse the GCC inliner. (Nadav
     Amit)

   - ... and a handful of other smaller changes as well"
