[PATCH] mutex: Make mutex_destroy an inline function

[Jean Delvare]

The non-debug variant of mutex_destroy is a no-op, currently
implemented as a macro which does nothing. This approach fails to
check the type of the parameter, so an error would only show when
debugging gets enabled. Using an inline function instead, offers
type checking for earlier bug catching.
