locking/mutex: Complain upon mutex API misuse in IRQ contexts

Browse Source 
Add warning checks if mutex_trylock() or mutex_unlock() are used in
IRQ contexts, under CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y.

While the mutex rules and semantics are explicitly documented, this allows
to expose any abusers and robustifies the whole thing.

While trylock and unlock are non-blocking, calling from IRQ context
is still forbidden (lock must be within the same context as unlock).
