Subject: [GIT PULL] locking fixes

Linus,

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

   # HEAD: 578ae447e7e5d78c90ac40a06406c1741f79ba96 jump_label: Disable jump labels in __exit code

Two fixes: tighten up a jump-labels warning to not trigger on certain modules and 
fix confusing (and non-existent) mutex API documentation.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
