Subject: New locking test for the paulmckrcu/litmus github archive

Paul:

Below is a new litmus test for the manual/locked directory in your 
github archive.  It is based on a suggestion from Andrea Parri, and it 
demonstrates a bug in the current LKMM lock.cat file.  Patches to fix 
that file will be sent shortly.

Alan
