[PATCH 1/6] locking: add ww_mutex_(un)lock_for_each helpers

["Christian König" <ckoenig.leichtzumerken@gmail.com>]

The ww_mutex implementation allows for detection deadlocks when multiple
threads try to acquire the same set of locks in different order.

The problem is that handling those deadlocks was the burden of the user of
the ww_mutex implementation and at least some users didn't got that right
on the first try.

I'm not a big fan of macros, but it still better then implementing the same
logic at least halve a dozen times. So this patch adds two macros to lock
and unlock multiple ww_mutex instances with the necessary deadlock handling.

+ * ww_mutex_lock_for_each - implement ww_mutex deadlock handling

+ * @pos: code fragment returning the currently handled lock
+ * @contended: ww_mutex pointer variable for state handling

+ * @intr: If true ww_mutex_lock_interruptible() is used
+ * @ctx: ww_acquire_ctx pointer for the locking
+ *
+ * This macro implements the necessary logic to lock multiple ww_mutex
+ * instances. Lock contention with backoff and re-locking is handled by the
+ * macro so that the loop body only need to handle other errors and
+ * successfully acquired locks.
+ *
+ * With the @loop and @pos code fragment it is possible to apply this logic
+ * to all kind of containers (array, list, tree, etc...) holding multiple
+ * ww_mutex instances.
+ *
+ * @contended is used to hold the current state we are in. -ENOENT is used to
+ * signal that we are just starting the handling. -EDEADLK means that the
+ * current position is contended and we need to restart the loop after locking
+ * it. NULL means that there is no contention to be handled. Any other value is
+ * the last contended ww_mutex.
