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

Pull locking changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The most noticeable change are mutex speedups from Waiman Long, for
  higher loads.  These scalability changes should be most noticeable on
  larger server systems.

  There are also cleanups, fixes and debuggability improvements."

* 'core-locking-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  lockdep: Consolidate bug messages into a single print_lockdep_off() function
  lockdep: Print out additional debugging advice when we hit lockdep BUGs
  mutex: Back out architecture specific check for negative mutex count
  mutex: Queue mutex spinners with MCS lock to reduce cacheline contention
  mutex: Make more scalable by doing less atomic operations
  mutex: Move mutex spinning code from sched/core.c back to mutex.c
  locking/rtmutex/tester: Set correct permissions on sysfs files
  lockdep: Remove unnecessary 'hlock_next' variable
