A while back Viro posted a number of 'interesting' mutex_is_locked() users on IRC, one of those was RCU. RCU seems to use mutex_is_locked() to avoid doing mutex_trylock(), the regular load before modify pattern. While the use isn't wrong per se, its curious in that its needed at all, mutex_trylock() should be good enough on its own to avoid the pointless cacheline bounces. So fix those and remove the mutex_is_locked() (ab)use from RCU.
