It is actually possible to detect if the current process is the owner of 
a mutex since there is a owner field in the mutex structure. However, 
the owner field also contains additional information which need to be 
masked off before comparing with "current". If such a functionality is 
really needed, we will have to add a helper function mutex_is_held(), 
for example, to kernel/locking/mutex.c.

Cheers,
