cheap special-case optimization for normal mutexes

cycle-level benchmark on atom cpu showed typical pthread_mutex_lock
call dropping from ~120 cycles to ~90 cycles with this change. benefit
may vary with compiler options and version, but this optimization is
very cheap to make and should always help some.
