Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "These are the locking updates for v5.10:

   - Add deadlock detection for recursive read-locks.

     The rationale is outlined in commit 224ec489d3cd ("lockdep/
     Documention: Recursive read lock detection reasoning")

     The main deadlock pattern we want to detect is:

           TASK A:                 TASK B:

           read_lock(X);
                                   write_lock(X);
           read_lock_2(X);

   - Add "latch sequence counters" (seqcount_latch_t):

     A sequence counter variant where the counter even/odd value is used
     to switch between two copies of protected data. This allows the
     read path, typically NMIs, to safely interrupt the write side
     critical section.

     We utilize this new variant for sched-clock, and to make x86 TSC
     handling safer.

   - Other seqlock cleanups, fixes and enhancements

   - KCSAN updates

   - LKMM updates

   - Misc updates, cleanups and fixes"
