Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] locking/mutex: Clean up mutex.h

Hello Waiman

Sorry for disturbing you. I just wanted to know are there plans to 
develop / merge this patch? We're trying to implement 
devm_mutex_destroy() and with this patch the solution would be 
straightforward.

Here is the patch series and discussion why devm_mutex_destroy()'d be 
helpful:
