If syslog() blocked, node-leave events were incorrectly reported

In some cases, the syslog() call may block. If this happened, the AIS worker
thread would block waiting on the syslog() call. However, the worker thread
is still holding a logsys mutex, which is needed to enqueue any more log
messages from the other AIS threads. So the main AIS thread blocks waiting
on the logsys mutex. This can then cause aisexec on other nodes to detect
the node as leaving the cluster.
