rcu: Suppress lockdep false-positive ->boost_mtx complaints
RCU priority boosting uses rt_mutex_init_proxy_locked() to initialize an
rt_mutex structure in locked state held by some other task. When that
other task releases it, lockdep complains (quite accurately, but a bit
uselessly) that the other task never acquired it. This complaint can
suppress other, more helpful, lockdep complaints, and in any case it is
a false positive.
This commit therefore switches from rt_mutex_unlock() to
rt_mutex_futex_unlock(), thereby avoiding the lockdep annotations.
Of course, if lockdep ever learns about rt_mutex_init_proxy_locked(),
addtional adjustments will be required.
