When unlocking a contested PI pthread mutex, if the queue of waiters

Description

When unlocking a contested PI pthread mutex, if the queue of waiters
is empty, look up the umtx_pi and disown it if the current thread owns it.
This can happen if a signal or timeout removed the last waiter from
the queue, but there is still a thread in do_lock_pi() holding a reference
on the umtx_pi. The unlocking thread might not own the umtx_pi in this case,
but if it does, it must disown it to keep the ownership consistent between
the umtx_pi and the umutex.
