This is not correct. While it is not possible that two threads increment waiters at the same time due to the external mutex, it is still possible that on thread increments, and a different one decrements. You lost all provisions to avoid that.
Furthermore, waiters_lock not only protects waiters, but also the combined state of waiters and was_broadcast. You break this protection. See also here:
