The following series contains the following changes:

    - fix the last users of the oldstyle seqlock initializer 

    - implement raw_seqlock (for seqlocks which need a raw_spinlock in
      preempt-rt

    - convert xtime_lock to raw_seqlock and fix up all users

    - convert x86 vsyscall gtod seqlock to raw_seqlock

The patches have been used in the preempt-rt tree for quite a while
and are a defacto NOP change for mainline, but merging them takes off
the burden from preempt-rt.

Please review and comment.

Thanks,

	tglx
