 * We split the mutex lock/unlock logic into separate fastpath and

 * We also put the fastpath first in the kernel image, to make sure the
 * branch is predicted by the CPU as default-untaken.

 * mutex_lock - acquire the mutex
 * @lock: the mutex to be acquired
 * Lock the mutex exclusively for this task. If the mutex is not
 * available right now, it will sleep until it can get it.
 * The mutex must later on be released by the same task that
 * acquired it. Recursive locking is not allowed. The task
 * may not exit without first unlocking the mutex. Also, kernel
 * memory where the mutex resides mutex must not be freed with
 * the mutex still locked. The mutex must first be initialized
 * (or statically defined) before it can be locked. memset()-ing
 * the mutex to 0 is not allowed.
 * ( The CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES .config option turns on debugging
 *   checks that will enforce the restrictions and will also do
 *   deadlock debugging. )
 * This function is similar to (but not equivalent to) down().

	 * doesn't track the owner atomically in the lock field, we need to
