From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Alex Goins reported that mutex_destroy() on RT will force a GPL only symbol
which won't link and therefore fail on a non-GPL kernel module.
This does not happen on !RT and is a regression on RT which we would like to
avoid.
I try here the easy thing and to not use rt_mutex_destroy() if
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES is not enabled. This will still break for the DEBUG
configs so instead of adding a wrapper around rt_mutex_destroy() (which we have
for rt_mutex_lock() for instance) I am simply dropping the GPL part from the
export.
