Merge tag 'locks-v4.21-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux

Pull file locking updates from Jeff Layton:
 "The main change in this set is Neil Brown's work to reduce the
  thundering herd problem when a heavily-contended file lock is
  released.

  Previously we'd always wake up all waiters when this occurred. With
  this set, we'll now we only wake up waiters that were blocked on the
  range being released"
