    mutex: Move mutex spinning code from sched/core.c back to mutex.c · 41fcb9f2
    Waiman Long authored
    
    
    As mentioned by Ingo, the SCHED_FEAT_OWNER_SPIN scheduler
    feature bit was really just an early hack to make with/without
    mutex-spinning testable. So it is no longer necessary.
    
    This patch removes the SCHED_FEAT_OWNER_SPIN feature bit and
    move the mutex spinning code from kernel/sched/core.c back to
    kernel/mutex.c which is where they should belong.
