Subject: [GIT pull] locking: Fixes for 4.15

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 final fixes for 4.15:

 - Repair the OWNER_DIED logic in the futex code which got wreckaged with the
   recent fix for a subtle race condition.

 - Prevent the hard lockup detector from triggering when dumping all held
   locks in the system.

Thanks,

	tglx
