    nptl: Effectively skip CAS in spinlock loop
    
    The commit:
    "Add LLL_MUTEX_READ_LOCK [BZ #28537]"
    SHA1: d672a98a1af106bd68deb15576710cd61363f7a6
    
    introduced LLL_MUTEX_READ_LOCK, to skip CAS in spinlock loop
    if atomic load fails. But, "continue" inside of do-while loop
    does not skip the evaluation of escape expression, thus CAS
    is not skipped.
    
    Replace do-while with while and skip LLL_MUTEX_TRYLOCK if
    LLL_MUTEX_READ_LOCK fails.
