I do recall having the discussion about this a while back with you and 
Andrey.

I highly doubt that the flags would ever really change here (if they're 
even capable) between the wait and the lock so I think this is fine.

I think there's a bigger problem with that and how they could 
potentially change between atomic check and atomic commit tail anyway 
(and doing something bad after we think it's passed validation).

But this is mostly a theoretical concern I think rather than a practical 
one.

Thanks.
