Some of the kernel's `ww_mutex` functions are implemented as
`static inline`, so they are inaccessible from Rust as bindgen
can't generate code on them. This patch provides C function wrappers
around these inline implementations, so bindgen can see them and
generate the corresponding Rust code.

Removes DEBUG_WW_MUTEXES guard around the ww_class field
in struct ww_mutex and struct ww_acquire_ctx to always
initialize it.
Keeping the class pointer available unconditionally allows
Rust abstractions to keep from_raw() simple on Mutex and
AcquireCtx and validate Mutex and AcquireCtx class pairing
in much simpler way.

Adds the Class type, the first step in supporting ww_mutex in Rust.
Class represents ww_class, used for deadlock avoidance for supporting
both wait-die and wound-wait semantics.
Also adds the define_ww_class and define_wd_class macros for safely
declaring static instances.

LockSet is a high-level and safe API built on top of
ww_mutex which provides a safe and easy to use API
while keeping the ww_mutex semantics.
When EDEADLK is hit it drops all held locks and waits for the
contended mutex. It then retries the given (by the user)
locking algorithm with that mutex held and the same acquire
context until it succeeds.
