  SVN rev 187511 on 2009-01-21 04:19:18Z by thompsa
  
  Add functions WITNESS so it can be asserted that the lock is not released for a
  section of code, this uses WITNESS_NORELEASE() and WITNESS_RELEASEOK() to mark
  the boundaries. Both functions require the lock to be held when calling.
  
  This is intended for scenarios like a bus asserting that the bus lock is not
  dropped during a driver call. There doesn't appear to be a man page to
  document this in.
