  Log:
  MFC sndstat.c 1.18
  
  >   Convert sndstat_lock from a mutex to an sx lock.  sndstat_read()
  >   holds sndstat_lock across a call to uiomove(), which is not legal
  >   to do with a  mutex because of the possibility that the data transfer
  >   could sleep because of a page fault.  It is not possible to just
  >   unlock the mutex for the uiomove() call without introducing another
  >   locking mechanism to prevent the body of sndstat_read() from being
  >   re-entered.  Converting sndstat_lock to an sx lock is the least
  >   complicated change.
