[PATCH v2] mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro

[Jakov Novak]

Currently, khugepaged locks the khugepaged_mutex in two functions:
start_stop_khugepaged and khugepaged_min_free_kbytes_update. Remove
mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage in these functions and replace it with the
guard macro. This makes the code more readable (removing a goto statement)
and makes it harder to introduce bugs in the future.
No functional changes introduced.

v2:
  - Added #include <linux/cleanup.h> to the includes at the top of the file
  - Moved err declaration to the scope where it's used in
    start_stop_khugepaged
  - Made default case return 0 instead of err in start_stop_khugepaged
