Seems like reasonable thing to do, I'd split this to two completely
separate parts, the kernel change and the gem side.

You might want to CC the kernel side with a little bigger audience, as
this could be called invasive change. Not by changing existing stuff,
but maybe somebody with much experience in the mutex subsystem might
want to object exposing such functionality (maybe to keep people from
using mutexes the way we do it) for reasons beyond me.
