    Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
     "The biggest change is the MCS spinlock generalization changes from Tim
      Chen, Peter Zijlstra, Jason Low et al.  There's also lockdep
      fixes/enhancements from Oleg Nesterov, in particular a false negative
      fix related to lockdep_set_novalidate_class() usage"
