Yeah, that should more-or-less work I think. But I'm trying to see if
there's anything saner we can do, but so far my brain keeps slipping
off.
At the very least I want to kill the various wait_lock lockbreaks in
there, those hurt my brain and make me nervous as hell. That fixup does
_3_ consecutive wait_lock sections, and it becomes a very complicated
story to argue why that's not riddled with holes.
For now I have something like the below; which obviously doesn't
compile yet. Let me grab lunch and such things before attempting more.
