    locking/mutex: Break out of expensive busy-loop on {mutex,rwsem}_spin_on_owner() when owner vCPU is preempted
    
    An over-committed guest with more vCPUs than pCPUs has a heavy overload
    in the two spin_on_owner. This blames on the lock holder preemption
    issue.
    
    Break out of the loop if the vCPU is preempted: if vcpu_is_preempted(cpu)
    is true.
    
    test-case:
    perf record -a perf bench sched messaging -g 400 -p && perf report
