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

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:

- Implement wraparound-safe refcount_t and kref_t types based on
generic atomic primitives (Peter Zijlstra)

- Improve and fix the ww_mutex code (Nicolai Hähnle)

- Add self-tests to the ww_mutex code (Chris Wilson)

- Optimize percpu-rwsems with the 'rcuwait' mechanism (Davidlohr
Bueso)

- Micro-optimize the current-task logic all around the core kernel
(Davidlohr Bueso)

- Tidy up after recent optimizations: remove stale code and APIs,
clean up the code (Waiman Long)

- ... plus misc fixes, updates and cleanups"

locking/spinlocks/x86, paravirt: Remove paravirt_ticketlocks_enabled

This is a follow-up of commit:

cfd8983f03c7b2 ("x86, locking/spinlocks: Remove ticket (spin)lock implementation")

The static_key structure 'paravirt_ticketlocks_enabled' is now removed as it is
no longer used.

As a result, the init functions kvm_spinlock_init_jump() and
xen_init_spinlocks_jump() are also removed.

A simple build and boot test was done to verify it.

x86/paravirt: Optimize native pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()

Avoid the pointless function call to pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()
when a paravirt spinlock enabled kernel is ran on native hardware.

x86/paravirt: Optimize native pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()

Avoid the pointless function call to pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()
when a paravirt spinlock enabled kernel is ran on native hardware.

Do this by patching out the CALL instruction with "XOR %RAX,%RAX"
which has the same effect (0 return value).
