  Using spin lock to protect critical resources
of sending mgmt messages. This will make high
CPU usage when sending mgmt messages frequently.
We can use mutex to protect the critical resources
to reduce CPU usage while keep functioning properly.

I don't think the wrapper functions add much. 
pthread_mutex_init just sets internals of data structure and won't fail ever
if mutexattr_t is NULL.

Just use pthread_mutex_init/pthread_mutex_destroy directly
and ignore errors.
