streamline mutex unlock to remove a useless branch, use a_store to unlock
this roughly halves the cost of pthread_mutex_unlock, at least for
non-robust, normal-type mutexes.

the a_store change is in preparation for future support of archs which
require a memory barrier or special atomic store operation, and also
should prevent the possibility of the compiler misordering writes.
