- LKMM updates: mostly documentation changes, but also some new litmus tests for atomic ops. - KCSAN updates: the most important change is that GCC 11 now has all fixes in place to support KCSAN, so GCC support can be enabled again. Also more annotations. - futex updates: minor cleanups and simplifications - seqlock updates: merge preparatory changes/cleanups for the 'associated locks' facilities. - lockdep updates: - simplify IRQ trace event handling - add various new debug checks - simplify header dependencies, split out <linux/lockdep_types.h>, decouple lockdep from other low level headers some more - fix NMI handling - misc cleanups and smaller fixes Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
