At least in the for-next branch it isn't:

	ag_locks = calloc(mp->m_sb.sb_agcount, sizeof(struct aglock));

More importantly, I can't even find other uses of ag_locks for the
RT subvolume.  Is this hidden in one of your series?

Either way I think a separate lock for the RT subvolume would make a
whole lot more sense.
