From: Andi Kleen <a...@linux.intel.com>

lock_is_locked aborts with lock elision. Some code does a lot of lock asserts,
which causes a lot of aborts. Add a _xtest() here so that the checking is only
done when the lock is not elided. This always happens occasionally due to
fallbacks, so there is still enough assert coverage.
