It looks like you are just taking the mutex around various
of_changeset_* calls. We should either split the mutex into of_mutex
for core and changesets and an overlay mutex for overlays, or we need
to do the typical pattern of having changeset functions having locked
and unlocked versions for external and internal (overlays) use.
