locking/mutexes: Use MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER when appropriate
4badad35 ("locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some architectures") added a ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW flag to disable the mutex optimistic feature on specific archs. Because CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER only depended on DEBUG and SMP, it was ok to have the ->owner field conditional a bit flexible. However by adding a new variable to the matter, we can waste space with the unused field, ie: CONFIG_SMP && (!CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER && !CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEX).
