mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro

Currently, khugepaged locks the khugepaged_mutex in two functions:
start_stop_khugepaged and khugepaged_min_free_kbytes_update.  Remove
mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage in these functions and replace it with the
guard macro.  This makes the code more readable (removing a goto
statement) and makes it harder to introduce bugs in the future.  No
functional changes introduced.
