Merge tag 'locks-v3.20-1' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux

Pull file locking related changes #1 from Jeff Layton:
 "This patchset contains a fairly major overhaul of how file locks are
  tracked within the inode.  Rather than a single list, we now create a
  per-inode "lock context" that contains individual lists for the file
  locks, and a new dedicated spinlock for them.

  There are changes in other trees that are based on top of this set so
  it may be easiest to pull this in early"
