The correct fix is to not hold the offending lock across the
sndbuf_create() call and nuke the (tmpbuf == NULL) test.  At present, if
the malloc() call fails, the channel will not be relocked, and my panic
the system with an MTX_ASSERT() failure.  I wouldn't bet that the ENOMEM
failure is properly handled.

I pretty much know how I want to fix the locking, but haven't had time
to do it.  There are a bunch of other places in the sound code with
similar problems.
