rtmutex: Fix more prio comparisons

There was a pure ->prio comparison left in try_to_wake_rt_mutex(),
convert it to use rt_mutex_waiter_less(), noting that greater-or-equal
is not-less (both in kernel priority view).

This necessitated the introduction of cmp_task() which creates a
pointer to an unnamed stack variable of struct rt_mutex_waiter type to
compare against tasks.

With this, we can now also create and employ rt_mutex_waiter_equal().
