locking/mutex: Restructure wait loop
Doesn't really matter yet, but pull the HANDOFF and trylock out from under the wait_lock. The intention is to add an optimistic spin loop here, which requires we do not hold the wait_lock, so shuffle code around in preparation. Also clarify the purpose of taking the wait_lock in the wait loop, its tempting to want to avoid it altogether, but the cancellation cases need to to avoid losing wakeups.
