Request for 3.18-stable: a63b03e2d247 ("mutex: Always clear owner field upon mutex_unlock()")

Hi Greg,

I noticed that 3.18.125 added commit bc07ee33284a ('Revert "drm/i915:
Fix mutex->owner inspection race under DEBUG_MUTEXES"'), which states
that the reason it can be applied is:

    The core fix was applied in
    
    commit a63b03e2d2477586440741677ecac45bcf28d7b1
    Author: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
    Date:   Tue Jan 6 10:29:35 2015 +0000
    
        mutex: Always clear owner field upon mutex_unlock()
    
    (note the absence of stable@ tag)

    so we can now revert our band-aid commit 226e5ae9e5f910 for -next.


but that the commit referenced wasn't also pulled in.

Please consider pulling that one too if you're going to do another 3.18
stable release.

Thanks,

Tom
