Remove mutex lock around sys_gettimeofday() in os:timestamp/0
In the erlang-questions thread "os:timestamp() uses mutex lock" Jonas Falkevik questioned the need for a mutex lock in os:timestamp/0. The mutex lock *is* needed in erlang:now() to guarantee the uniqueness of the returned time, but serves no useful purpose in os:timestamp(). Signed-off-by: Tuncer Ayaz <[email protected]>
