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 :-)
mutex: small cleanup
mutex: preemption fixes
mutex: implement adaptive spinning
mutex: set owner in mutex_lock() only
mutex: adaptive spin for debug too
mutex: adaptive spin performance tweaks
