locking/rtmutex: Use try_cmpxchg_relaxed() in mark_rt_mutex_waiters()
Use try_cmpxchg() instead of cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old. The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG (and related move instruction in front of CMPXCHG). Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when CMPXCHG fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop. Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE() to prevent the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read. No functional change intended.
