Re: [tip:locking/urgent] locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some architectures

[Christian Borntraeger]

s390: s390 also supports proper atomic read modify write,

There is no need to disable mutex spinning. The instructions 
CS,CSG and friends provide the proper guarantees. (We dont 
implement cmpxchg with locks).
