Subject: [PATCH v2] locking/mutex: clear MUTEX_FLAGS if wait_list is empty due to signal

From: Zqiang <qiang.zhang@...driver.com>

When call mutex_lock_interruptible(), if after queue waiter to
lock->wait_list, exit cycle interrupted by signal without obtaining
lock, the waiter be del from lock->wait_list, if the lock->wait_list
is empty, and not clear MUTEX_FLAGS, when the lock is acquired again
, because the lock flags exist, the trylock_fast will be failed,
and enter slow path acqurie lock, so clear MUTEX_FLAGS when call
mutex_lock_interruptible() interrupted by a signal and the
lock->wait_list is empty,  in this way, when the lock is acquired
again, it will acquire succeed in the fast path.

 v1->v2:
 Make commit info clearer and modify the code again.
