2017-08-24rtmutex: update rt-mutexAlex Shi
The rtmutex remove a pending owner bit in in rt_mutex::owner, in commit 8161239a8bcc ("rtmutex: Simplify PI algorithm and make highest prio task get lock") But the document was changed accordingly. Updating it to a meaningful state. BTW, as 'Steven Rostedt' mentioned: There is still technically a "Pending Owner", it's just not called that anymore. The pending owner happens to be the top_waiter of a lock that has no owner and has been woken up to grab the lock.
