I think the problem was that this was a third patch after two
documentation patches. Where, people put documentation review at the
bottom of their priority list.

This should have been sent as separate patch on its own.

Interesting, I did some git mining and this was added with the original
entry of the rtmutex.c (23f78d4a0). Looking at even that version, I
don't see the purpose of adjusting the task prio here. It is done
before anything changes in the task.
