Subject: [GIT pull] locking updates for 5.1

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 small fixes;

 - Cure a recently introduces error path hickup which tries to
   unregister a not registered lockdep key in te workqueue code.

 - Prevent unaligned cmpxchg() crashes in the robust list handling code by
   sanity checking the user space supplied futex pointer.

Thanks,

	tglx
