In the event of a lock steal or owner died, rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() will
give the rt_mutex to the waiting task, but it fails to release the wait_lock.
This leads to subsequent deadlocks when other tasks try to acquire the
rt_mutex.
I also removed a few extra blank lines that really spaced this routine out.
I must have been high on the \n when I wrote this originally...
Note: this is the -rt version, I'll send another for mainline.
