Including rtmutex.h here means that mutex_types.h is no longer a simple 
header for types only. So unless you also break out a rtmutex_types.h, 
it is inconsistent.

Besides, the kernel/sched code does use mutex_lock/unlock calls quite 
frequently. With this patch, mutex.h will not be directly included. I 
suspect that it is indirectly included via other header files. This may 
be an issue with some configurations.
