I checked that it applies cleanly to net-next:

[snorch@...ora linux]$ git am 
~/Downloads/patches/ptikhomirov/setsockopt-sk_userlocks/\[PATCH\ v2\]\ 
sock\:\ allow\ reading\ and\ changing\ sk_userlocks\ with\ setsockopt.eml

[snorch@...ora linux]$ git log --oneline
c339520aadd5 (HEAD -> net-next) sock: allow reading and changing 
sk_userlocks with setsockopt

d39e8b92c341 (net-next/master) Merge 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next


Probably it was some temporary problem and now it's OK?
