[PATCH -tip v2 1/7] locking/mutex: Standardize arguments in lock/unlock slowpaths

From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Wed Jul 30 2014 - 16:42:24 EST


Just how the locking-end behaves, when unlocking, go ahead and
obtain the proper data structure immediately after the previous
(asm-end) call exits and there are (probably) pending waiters.
This simplifies a bit some of the layering.
