- Core locking primitives updates: - Remove mutex_trylock_recursive() from the API - no users left - Simplify + constify the futex code a bit - Lockdep updates: - Teach lockdep about local_lock_t - Add CONFIG_DEBUG_IRQFLAGS=y debug config option to check for potentially unsafe IRQ mask restoration patterns.
