Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes for lockdep, tracing and RCU:
- Prevent recursion by using raw_cpu_* operations
- Fixup the interrupt state in the cpu idle code to be consistent
- Push rcu_idle_enter/exit() invocations deeper into the idle path so
that the lock operations are inside the RCU watching sections
- Move trace_cpu_idle() into generic code so it's called before RCU
goes idle.
- Handle raw_local_irq* vs. local_irq* operations correctly
- Move the tracepoints out from under the lockdep recursion handling
which turned out to be fragile and inconsistent"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
