  Modified files:
    sys/kern             subr_witness.c 
  Log:
  Close a race condition where if we were obtaining a sleep lock and no spin
  locks were held, we could be preempted and switch CPU's in between the time
  that we set a variable to the list of spin locks on our CPU and the time
  that we checked that variable to ensure no spinlocks were held while
  grabbing a sleep lock.  Losing the race resulted in checking some other
  CPU's spin lock list and bogusly panicing.
