stable inclusion from linux-4.19.172 commit f9b0c6c556dbf3694fee05f1334830ce2ec1f5bc
--------------------------------
commit 3f186d974826847a07bc7964d79ec4eded475ad9 upstream
The mutex will be used in subsequent changes to replace the busy looping of a waiter when the futex owner is currently executing the exit cleanup to prevent a potential live lock.
