cdf26bb10b locktorture: Add documentation 
Just like Documentation/RCU/torture.txt, begin a document for the
locktorture module. This module is still pretty green, so I have
just added some specific sections to the doc (general desc, params,
usage, etc.). Further development should update the file.

0a7cbf9abe locking/Documentation: Update locking/mutex-design.txt disadvantages 
Fortunately Jason was able to reduce some of the overhead we
had introduced in the original rwsem optimistic spinning -
an it is now the same size as mutexes. Update the documentation
accordingly.
