locking/mutexes: Refactor optimistic spinning code
When we fail to acquire the mutex in the fastpath, we end up calling __mutex_lock_common(). A *lot* goes on in this function. Move out the optimistic spinning code into mutex_optimistic_spin() and simplify the former a bit. Furthermore, this is similar to what we have in rwsems. No logical changes.
