rtmutex: Handle deadlock detection smarter
commit 3d5c9340d1949733eb37616abd15db36aef9a57c upstream. Even in the case when deadlock detection is not requested by the caller, we can detect deadlocks. Right now the code stops the lock chain walk and keeps the waiter enqueued, even on itself. Silly not to yell when such a scenario is detected and to keep the waiter enqueued. Return -EDEADLK unconditionally and handle it at the call sites. The futex calls return -EDEADLK. The non futex ones dequeue the waiter, throw a warning and put the task into a schedule loop. Tagged for stable as it makes the code more robust.
