Much cleaner.

That said, I have a personal preference for lockdep_assert_held() in
these situations, which not only tells you whether the lock is locked,
but (I believe) whether it was locked by the current task as well.

Theoretically you could have a different task take this spinlock, and
then call into here without holding it and not get the assertion since
it was locked at the time. Of course, that does require lockdep...

In any case, this is still an improvement:
