Subject: [GIT pull] locking updates for 4.13

Linus,

please pull the latest locking-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git locking-urgent-for-linus

Two fixlets for the locking code:

  - Fix the EINTR logic in rwsem-spinlock to avoid double locking by a
    writer and a reader

  - Add a missing include to qspinlocks.

Thanks,

	tglx
