mutex: Do not unnecessarily deal with waiters
mutex: Do not unnecessarily deal with waiters

Upon entering the slowpath, we immediately attempt to acquire
the lock by checking if it is already unlocked. If we are lucky
enough that this is the case, then we don't need to deal with
any waiter related logic.

Furthermore any checks for an empty wait_list are unnecessary as
we already know that count is non-negative and hence no one is
waiting for the lock.

Move the count check and xchg calls to be done before any
waiters are setup - including waiter debugging. Upon failure to
acquire the lock, the xchg sets the counter to 0, instead of -1
as it was originally. This can be done here since we set it back
to -1 right at the beginning of the loop so other waiters are
woken up when the lock is released.

When tested on a 8-socket (80 core) system against a vanilla
3.10-rc1 kernel, this patch provides some small performance
benefits (+2-6%). While it could be considered in the noise
level, the average percentages were stable across multiple runs
and no performance regressions were seen. Two big winners, for
small amounts of users (10-100), were the short and compute
workloads had a +19.36% and +%15.76% in jobs per minute.

Also change some break statements to 'goto slowpath', which IMO
makes a little more intuitive to read.
