[PATCH v2 0/2] hung_task: show the blocker task if the task is hung on rtmutex

[ruipengqi]

From: Ruipeng Qi <ruipengqi3@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently, debug_show_blocker() only tracks mutex, semaphore and rwsem
lock types. Extend it to also cover rtmutex or rt_mutex-based lock
implementations on PREEMPT_RT, so that when a task is hung on an
rtmutex, the hung task detector can identify and report which task holds
the lock.

Add rt_mutex_task_owner() to get the task's lock owner when a task is
blocked by an rtmutex-based lock implementation.

Since the LSBs of task->blocker pointer are already fully utilized and
leave no room for new blocker types, this version avoids adding a new
blocker type by directly leveraging rt_mutex_task_owner() to retrieve
the lock owner information.

With this change, the hung task detector can now show blocker task's
info like below:

v2 changes:
 - Reduce #ifdef-ery by using rt_mutex_task_owner() instead of adding a new blocker type,
 suggested by Petr.
 - Remove the unused function debug_trace_blocker(), suggested by Xusheng.
 - Clean up and update relevant comments.
