Log Message:
As proposed in
https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2015/10/14/msg019511.html
don't sleep on sme->sme_mtx in the callout but use mutex_tryenter()
and just reschedule the callout if we can't get the mutex now.
This fixes a deadlock which can happen if the backed wants to
sleep with timeout (e.g. cv_timedwait()) as the backed is called with
sme->sme_mtx held.
This is a stopgap measure for netbsd-7; sysmon should be changed to not
sleep (or call a backend which will sleep) with mutexes held.
