Noticed this while looking at the privatization safety code.  If we're
already in serial mode, there is no other active transaction that could
have pending reads or writes, so there is also no need to enforce/check
that there is no other active txn.  This is not triggered with the
current set of TM methods, but better to add this now than get hit by
the overhead later.

OK for trunk?
