Don't think so. Well, it is safe on i386, but on other architectures,
test_and_set_bit is not guaranteed to be atomic. [And I'm afraid that
this code is used on non-i386 but similar hw around machines?]
You should better use atomic_t mksound_lock, and
atomic_inc/atomic_dec.
Correct and post to linus ;-)
