compiler-context-analysys: Add __cond_releases()
Useful for things like unlock fastpaths, which on success release the lock. Suggested-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260121111213.634625032@infradead.org
