I've updated the patch to use callout_init_mtx() and would appreciate it if 
the folks who tested it earlier could retest it.  Also, can someone with an 
Alpha please test this as I messed around with the SRM_MEDIA code some in 
order to make the locking in dc_init_locked() sane and it needs testing on an 
Alpha.
