OK, so this patch generates:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at /usr/src/linux-2.6/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c:82 debug_mutex_unlock+0x155/0x180()
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current)
for kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
And that makes sense, because as soon as we release the lock a new owner
can come in.
One would think that !__mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock() implementations
suffer the same, but for DEBUG we fall back to mutex-null.h which has an
unconditional 1 for that.
How about something like the below; will test after lunch.

Subject: locking/mutex: Fix debug checks
The mutex debug code requires the mutex to be unlocked after doing the
debug checks, otherwise it can find inconsistent state.
Fixes: 1d8fe7dc8078 ("locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lock")
