Insmod locktorture with torture_type=mutex will lead to crash,

Fix it by check stats_task in lock_torture_cleanup() to guard not into
a wrong path.

No, the pc is in __torture_print_stats(char *page, struct lock_stress_stats *statp, bool write),
that is 'long min = statp[0].n_lock_acquired;', if the torture_type is invalid, the statp is NULL,
because the cxt.lwsa and cxt.lwsa/cxt.lrsa are not initialized in lock_torture_init().
