rtmutex: Simplify and document try_to_take_rtmutex()

Browse Source 
The current implementation of try_to_take_rtmutex() is correct, but
requires more than a single brain twist to understand the clever
encoded conditionals.

Untangle it and document the cases proper.

Looks less efficient at the first glance, but actually reduces the
binary code size on x8664 by 80 bytes.

* the lock can be released or taken while we are doing the
* checks and marking the lock with RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS.
* Before testing whether we can acquire @lock, we set the
* RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS bit in @lock->owner. This forces all
* other tasks which try to modify @lock into the slow path
* and they serialize on @lock->wait_lock.
*
* The atomic acquire/release aware variant of
* mark_rt_mutex_waiters uses a cmpxchg loop. After setting
* the WAITERS bit, the atomic release / acquire can not
* happen anymore and lock->wait_lock protects us from the
* non-atomic case.
* The RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS bit can have a transitional state
* as explained at the top of this file if and only if:
*
* Note, that this might set lock->owner =
* RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS in the case the lock is not contended
* any more. This is fixed up when we take the ownership.
* This is the transitional state explained at the top of this file.
* - There is a lock owner. The caller must fixup the
