I made some comments on the mlock+munlock situation last week:
I won't review this 24/32 and 25/32 now, but will take a look
at your github tree tomorrow instead.  Perhaps I'll find you have
already done the fixes, perhaps I'll find you have merged these back
into earlier patches.  And I won't be reviewing beyond this point:
this is enough for now, I think.
