locking/rtmutex: Optimize setting task running after being blocked
We explicitly mark the task running after returning from
a __rt_mutex_slowlock() call, which does the actual sleeping
via wait-wake-trylocking. As such, this patch does two things:
(1) refactors the code so that setting current to TASK_RUNNING
is done by __rt_mutex_slowlock(), and not by the callers. The
downside to this is that it becomes a bit unclear when at what
point we block. As such I've added a comment that the task
blocks when calling __rt_mutex_slowlock() so readers can figure
out when it is running again.
(2) relaxes setting current's state through __set_current_state(),
instead of it's more expensive barrier alternative. There was no
need for the implied barrier as we're obviously not planning on
blocking.
