Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Lock warning cleanup

1. TIME subsytem : patch 1, an __acquires(timer) annotation is added. as
the function despite having a nested lock the outer one allows entry to
critical section only.
2. Within futex.c file or path 2, a __releases() annotation is added. as the
function releases the lock at exit.
3. MUTEX subsystem : patch 3, __acquires(lock) and __releases(lock) are
added to mutex_lock() and mutex_unlock() to fix issues raised in other
files. 

Jules Irenge (3):
  time: Add missing annotation to lock_hrtimer_base()
  futex: Add missing annotation for wake_futex_pi()
  mutex: Add missing annotations
