So I pulled this, but I'm not particularly happy with how this (very
unusual) lock pollutes <linux/mutex.h> that pretty much every single
file ends up including.
So I'd really prefer to see the ww_mutex() support split up into
<linux/ww_mutex.h>, rather than making the compiler have to parse and
remember that stuff when 99.99% of all files do not care about it or
need it.
Hmm?
