Full series, including changelogs available at:

 http://programming.kicks-ass.net/kernel-patches/mutex-adaptive-spin/

and should shortly appear in a git tree near Ingo :-)
Linus,

Please pull the adaptive-mutexes-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git adaptive-mutexes-for-linus
I was going to put this into the btrfs tree, but since you have a branch
just for adaptive mutexes, is it easier to put there?

From: Chris Mason <redacted>

Btrfs: stop spinning on mutex_trylock and let the adaptive code spin for us

Mutexes now spin internally and the btrfs spin is no longer required for
performance.

Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <redacted>
applied it to tip/core/locking, thanks Chris!
