Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking/atomics update from Thomas Gleixner:
"The locking, atomics and memory model brains delivered:
- A larger update to the atomics code which reworks the ordering
barriers, consolidates the atomic primitives, provides the new
atomic64_fetch_add_unless() primitive and cleans up the include
hell.
- Simplify cmpxchg() instrumentation and add instrumentation for
xchg() and cmpxchg_double().
- Updates to the memory model and documentation"
