locking/mutex: Introduce mutex_init_with_key()
The following pattern occurs 5 times in kernel drivers: lockdep_register_key(key); __mutex_init(mutex, name, key); In several cases the 'name' argument matches #mutex. Hence, introduce the mutex_init_with_key() macro. This macro derives the 'name' argument from the 'mutex' argument.
