Hi Ingo,

The commits in the pull request look good to me, however I find the
description has some problems.

This should be v6.18, right?

This part is not in the pull request. I had two pull requests to tip
tree this cycle:

* For atomics: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250905044141.77868-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com/
* For locking: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20250919091241.32138-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com/

The second one contains the part you mentioned above, but it's never
been merged into tip tree, so it doesn't exist in tag
locking-core-2025-09-26.

Boqun
