These functions are intended to be used to drop a lock and then reacquire it when doing an sleep such as msleep(9). Both functions accept a 'struct lock_object *' as their first parameter. The 'lc_unlock' function returns an integer that is then passed as the second paramter to the subsequent 'lc_lock' function. This can be used to communicate state. For example, sx locks and rwlocks use this to indicate if the lock was share/read locked vs exclusive/write locked. Currently, spin mutexes and lockmgr locks do not provide working lc_lock and lc_unlock functions.
