From: Mark Pearson <mpearson-lenovo@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c41e0121a1221894a1a9c4666156db9e1def4d6c ] When an attribute is being changed if the Admin account is enabled, or if a password is being updated then multiple WMI calls are needed. Add mutex protection to ensure no race conditions are introduced.
