Pull futex fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Fix for yet another subtle futex issue.

  The futex code used ihold() to prevent inodes from vanishing, but
  ihold() does not guarantee inode persistence. Replace the inode
  pointer with a per boot, machine wide, unique inode identifier.

  The second commit fixes the breakage of the hash mechanism which
  causes a 100% performance regression"
