    locking/mutex: Introduce devm_mutex_init() · 4cd47222
    George Stark authored Apr 11, 2024
    
    
    Using of devm API leads to a certain order of releasing resources.
    So all dependent resources which are not devm-wrapped should be deleted
    with respect to devm-release order. Mutex is one of such objects that
    often is bound to other resources and has no own devm wrapping.
    Since mutex_destroy() actually does nothing in non-debug builds
    frequently calling mutex_destroy() is just ignored which is safe for now
    but wrong formally and can lead to a problem if mutex_destroy() will be
    extended so introduce devm_mutex_init().
