Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Lots of tidying up changes all across the map for Linux's formal
memory/locking-model tooling, by Alan Stern, Akira Yokosawa, Andrea
Parri, Paul E. McKenney and SeongJae Park.
Notable changes beyond an overall update in the tooling itself is the
tidying up of spin_is_locked() semantics, which spills over into the
kernel proper as well.
- qspinlock improvements: the locking algorithm now guarantees forward
progress whereas the previous implementation in mainline could starve
threads indefinitely in cmpxchg() loops. Also other related cleanups
to the qspinlock code (Will Deacon)
- misc smaller improvements, cleanups and fixes all across the locking
subsystem

lockless_dereference() is a nice idea, but it gained little traction in
kernel code since its introduction three years ago. This is partly
because it's a pain to type, but also because using READ_ONCE() instead
has worked correctly on all architectures apart from Alpha, which is a
fully supported but somewhat niche architecture these days.
Now that READ_ONCE() has been upgraded to contain an implicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and the few callers of lockless_dereference()
have been converted, we can remove lockless_dereference() altogether.
