    Pull restartable sequence support from Thomas Gleixner:
     "The restartable sequences syscall (finally):
    
      After a lot of back and forth discussion and massive delays caused by
      the speculative distraction of maintainers, the core set of
      restartable sequences has finally reached a consensus.
    
      It comes with the basic non disputed core implementation along with
      support for arm, powerpc and x86 and a full set of selftests
    
      It was exposed to linux-next earlier this week, so it does not fully
      comply with the merge window requirements, but there is really no
      point to drag it out for yet another cycle"
