locking/mutex: Further simplify mutex_spin_on_owner()

Similar to what Linus suggested for rwsem_spin_on_owner(), in
mutex_spin_on_owner() instead of having while (true) and
breaking out of the spin loop on lock->owner != owner, we can
have the loop directly check for while (lock->owner == owner) to
improve the readability of the code.

It also shrinks the code a bit:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   3721       0       0    3721     e89 mutex.o.before
   3705       0       0    3705     e79 mutex.o.after
