locking/rwsem: Avoid double checking before try acquiring write lock

Commit 9b0fc9c09f1b ("rwsem: skip initial trylock in rwsem_down_write_failed")
checks for if there are known active lockers in order to avoid write trylocking
using expensive cmpxchg() when it likely wouldn't get the lock.

However, a subsequent patch was added such that we directly
check for sem->count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS right before trying
that cmpxchg().

Thus, commit 9b0fc9c09f1b now just adds overhead.

This patch modifies it so that we only do a check for if
count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS.

Also, add a comment on why we do an "extra check" of count
before the cmpxchg().
