A lot of the changes which are not in that list look like the above,
instead of unlocking immediately after finding the network structure,
the unlocking is postponed until the end of the operation. What's the
reasonning ? Is that a safety against possible changes in the functions
i.e. just a preventive change or is there something we expected to be
safe which turns out not ?

Everything else is the CIL testing, looks good ! ACK
but a hint about the systematic changes about extended locking would
be good :-)
