Fix possible leak of semaphore count.

Commit 4aec49899e5782247e134f94ce1c6ee926f88e1c reorganized the order
of operations here so that we no longer increment the number of "extra
waits" before locking the semaphore, but it did not change the
starting value of extraWaits from 0 to -1 to compensate.  In the worst
case, this could leak a semaphore count, but that seems to be unlikely
in practice.
