Before this patch, each individual "go_lock" glock operation (glop)
checked the GL_SKIP flag, and if set, would skip further processing.

This patch changes the logic so the go_lock caller, function go_promote,
checks the GL_SKIP flag before calling the go_lock op in the first place.
This avoids having to unnecessarily unlock gl_lockref.lock only to
re-lock it again.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
