Add warning checks if mutex_trylock() or mutex_unlock() are used in IRQ contexts, under CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y. While the mutex rules and semantics are explicitly documented, this allows to expose any abusers and robustifies the whole thing. While trylock and unlock are non-blocking, calling from IRQ context is still forbidden (lock must be within the same context as unlock).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
