Implementation of mutexes
-------------------------
-'struct mutex' is the new mutex type, defined in include/linux/mutex.h
-and implemented in kernel/mutex.c. It is a counter-based mutex with a
-spinlock and a wait-list. The counter has 3 states: 1 for "unlocked",
-0 for "locked" and negative numbers (usually -1) for "locked, potential
-waiters queued".
