Yeah.

This is more of a correctness patch, nothing really tangible for
performance -- although I did note a 5% tp increase as that particular
workload, as pounds on the osq so we have to wait for the node->next
pointer. Otherwise, the window between when we set the lock is taken and
owner is set is very small.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
