mutex: Don't spin when the owner CPU is offline or other weird cases

Due to recent load-balancer changes that delay the task migration to
the next wakeup, the adaptive mutex spinning ends up in a live lock
when the owner's CPU gets offlined because the cpu_online() check
lives before the owner running check.

This patch changes mutex_spin_on_owner() to return 0 (don't spin) in
any case where we aren't sure about the owner struct validity or CPU
number, and if the said CPU is offline. There is no point going back &
re-evaluate spinning in corner cases like that, let's just go to
sleep.
