Merged 'Infrastructure to allow fixing exec deadlocks' from Bernd Edlinger

This is an infrastructure change that makes way for fixing this issue.
Each patch was already posted previously so this is just a cleanup of
the original mailing list thread(s) which got out of control by now.

Everything started here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/AM6PR03MB5170B06F3A2B75EFB98D071AE4E60@AM6PR03MB5170.eurprd03.prod.outlook.com/

I added reviewed-by tags from the mailing list threads, except when
withdrawn.

It took a lot longer than expected to collect everything from the
mailinglist threads, since several commit messages have been infected
with typos, and they got fixed without a new patch version.

- Correct the point of no return.
- Add two new mutexes to replace cred_guard_mutex.
- Fix each use of cred_guard_mutex.
- Update documentation.
- Add a test case.
