    Modify lock_delay() to increase the delay time after spinning
    
    Modify lock_delay() to increase the delay time after spinning,
    not before.  Previously we would spin at least twice instead of once.
    In NetApp's benchmarks this fixes a performance regression compared
    to FreeBSD 10, which called cpu_spinwait() directly.
