Tables in the list are locked in reverse order. Previously, the locks
were also added to `table_locks` in reverse order. This could leave some
elements empty at the beginning if only a subset of tables are locked.
Now each table lock is added starting from index 0. This means the
contents of `table_locks` are now in a reversed order.

Ultimately, this makes no difference though because all the usages also
have updated `table_locks` accesses meaning the same order is maintained
in practice.

So far makes sense :)
