assertion "spc->spc_migrating == NULL" failed



Hello,
working with a source code based on the matt-nb5-mips64 branch,
I can reproduce this panic:
panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "spc->spc_migrating == NULL" failed: file 
"/dsk/l1/misc/bouyer/tmp/src/sys/kern/kern_synch.c", line 656

(The soft int may vary). Looking at the sources, I see that
sched_nextlwp() is carefull to not propose a new lwp if a migration is in
progress. But when this KASSERT fires we're not necesserely about to
switch to a new (non-idle) lwp, but the current lwp got woken up by another
CPU while it was about to switch.

Shouldn't
                        KASSERT(spc->spc_migrating == NULL);
                        if (l->l_target_cpu !=  NULL) { 
                                spc->spc_migrating = l; 
                        }
be instead:
                        if (l->l_target_cpu !=  NULL) { 
                                KASSERT(spc->spc_migrating == NULL);
                                spc->spc_migrating = l; 
                        }

I did the above change and it seems to work, can someone confirm this is
correct ?
