futex: add double_unlock_hb()

Impact: cleanup

The futex code uses double_lock_hb() which locks the hb->lock's
in pointer value order.  There is no parallel unlock routine,
and the code unlocks them in name order, ignoring pointer value.

This patch adds double_unlock_hb() to refactor the duplicated
code segments.

Build and boot tested on a 4 way Intel x86_64 workstation.
Passes basic pthread_mutex and PI tests out of
ltp/testcases/realtime.
