[PATCH v3 04/12] locking/ww_mutex: Set use_ww_ctx even when locking without a context

From: Nicolai Hähnle <Nicolai.Haehnle at amd.com>

We will add a new field to struct mutex_waiter.  This field must be
initialized for all waiters if any waiter uses the ww_use_ctx path.

So there is a trade-off: Keep ww_mutex locking without a context on the
faster non-use_ww_ctx path, at the cost of adding the initialization to all
mutex locks (including non-ww_mutexes), or avoid the additional cost for
non-ww_mutex locks, at the cost of adding additional checks to the
use_ww_ctx path.

We take the latter choice.  It may be worth eliminating the users of
ww_mutex_lock(lock, NULL), but there are a lot of them.

v3:
- undo the moving around of ww in __mutex_lock_common
