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

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The locking department delivers:

   - A rather large and intrusive bundle of fixes to address serious
     performance regressions introduced by the new rwsem / mcs
     technology.  Simpler solutions have been discussed, but they would
     have been ugly bandaids with more risk than doing the right thing.

   - Make the rwsem spin on owner technology opt-in for architectures
     and enable it only on the known to work ones.

   - A few fixes to the lockdep userspace library"

* 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  locking/rwsem: Add CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER
  locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some architectures
  locking/rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphore
  locking/rwsem: Rename 'activity' to 'count'
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Introduce and use init macro and function for osq locks
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Rename optimistic_spin_queue() to optimistic_spin_node()
  locking/rwsem: Allow conservative optimistic spinning when readers have lock
  tools/liblockdep: Account for bitfield changes in lockdeps lock_acquire
  tools/liblockdep: Remove debug print left over from development
  tools/liblockdep: Fix comparison of a boolean value with a value of 2
