locking: rtmutex: Fix wake_q logic in task_blocks_on_rt_mutex
Anders had bisected a crash using PREEMPT_RT with linux-next and isolated it down to commit 894d1b3db41c ("locking/mutex: Remove wakeups from under mutex::wait_lock"), where it seemed the wake_q structure was somehow getting corrupted causing a null pointer traversal. I was able to easily repoduce this with PREEMPT_RT and managed to isolate down that through various call stacks we were actually calling wake_up_q() twice on the same wake_q. I found that in the problematic commit, I had added the wake_up_q() call in task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() around __ww_mutex_add_waiter(), following a similar pattern in __mutex_lock_common(). However, its just wrong. We haven't dropped the lock->wait_lock, so its contrary to the point of the original patch. And it didn't match the __mutex_lock_common() logic of re-initializing the wake_q after calling it midway in the stack. Looking at it now, the wake_up_q() call is incorrect and should just be removed. So drop the erronious logic I had added.
