Merge branch 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of fixes and updates for the locking code:

   - Prevent lockdep from updating irq state within its own code and
     thereby confusing itself.

   - Buid fix for older GCCs which mistreat anonymous unions

   - Add a missing lockdep annotation in down_read_non_onwer() which
     causes up_read_non_owner() to emit a lockdep splat

   - Remove the custom alpha dec_and_lock() implementation which is
     incorrect in terms of ordering and use the generic one.

  The remaining two commits are not strictly fixes. They provide irqsave
  variants of atomic_dec_and_lock() and refcount_dec_and_lock(). These
  are required to merge the relevant updates and cleanups into different
  maintainer trees for 4.19, so routing them into mainline without
  actual users is the sanest approach.

  They should have been in -rc1, but last weekend I took the liberty to
  just avoid computers in order to regain some mental sanity"
