So I don't see the point of removing *ww from the function scope, we can
still compute that container_of() even if !ww_ctx, right? That would
safe a ton of churn below, adding all those struct ww_mutex declarations
and container_of() casts.

(and note that the container_of() is a fancy NO-OP because base is the
first member).

All that then reverts to:

-	if (use_ww_ctx)
+	if (use_ww_ctx && ww_ctx)
