That's a bit of a race. It's possible for the path to be unlocked
when svn_fs_get_lock is called, for a lock to created shortly
afterwards, and thus for the subsequent svn_fs_lock call to fail.

I don't suppose it matters a great deal if the error gets returned by
svn_fs_lock instead of svn_repos_fs_lock, but the fact that the race
exists means that the code is suspicious. It's a bit like libsvn_wc
doing stat() to check a file exists before open() rather than simply
handling the open() error.
