Merge tag 'locks-v4.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux
Pull fasync fix from Jeff Layton: "Just a single fix for a deadlock in the fasync handling code that Kirill observed while testing. The fix is to change the fa_lock to be rwlock_t, and use a read lock in kill_fasync_rcu" * tag 'locks-v4.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux: fasync: Fix deadlock between task-context and interrupt-context kill_fasync()
