Hi, Zack,

Quite often it's a little hard to tell if reservations are already held
in code paths that unpin bo's. While our pinning/unpinning code should
be more explicit that requires a substential amount of work so instead
we can avoid the issues by making sure we try to reserve before unpinning. Because we unpin those bo's only on destruction/error paths just that check
tells us if we're already reserved or not and allows to cleanly unpin.

Isn't there a chance another thread is holding the lock and releasing it at this position?

Yes, it was definitely possible. In v2 I implemented it the way Daniel suggested, I think it's a decent compromise. Thanks for taking a look at this!
