bsdacct-turn-the-acct_lock-from-on-the-struct-to-global.patch

Subject: bsdacct: turn the acct_lock from on-the-struct to global
From: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@xxxxxxxxxx>
Don't use per-bsd-acct-struct lock, but work with a global one.
This lock is taken for short periods, so it doesn't seem it'll become a
bottleneck, but it will allow us to easily avoid many locking difficulties
in the future.
So this is a mostly s/acct_globals.lock/acct_lock/ over the file.
