Subject: [PATCH memory-model 0/5] Updates to the formal memory model
Hello, Ingo!
This series contains updates to the Linux kernel's formal memory model
in tools/memory-model, along with corresponding changes in documentation
and Linux-kernel code. These patches are ready for inclusion into -tip.
1. Document litmus-test naming scheme.
2. Add extra ordering for locks and remove it for ordinary
release/acquire, courtesy of Alan Stern.
3. Fix a README typo, courtesy of SeongJae Park.
4. Expand the list of LKMM limitations.
5. Replace smp_cond_acquire() with smp_cond_load_acquire(),
courtesy of Andrea Parri.
Thanx, Paul
