>Description:
SLEEP(9) says under tsleep():
  If the Giant lock is not held and mtx is NULL, then timo must be non-zero.
However, the given proto is
  int
  tsleep(void *ident, int priority, const char *wmesg, int timo);
 -- no mtx there. Is this just plain wrong, or should it be under msleep() instead?
