To avoid calling try_to_take_rtmutex() we really want to check whether the lock has an owner at all or whether the trylock failed because the owner is NULL, but the RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS bit is set. This covers the lock is owned by caller situation as well. We can actually do this check lockless. trylock is taking a chance whether we take lock->wait_lock to do the check or not. Add comments to the function while at it.
