Hi Ingo,
Damn! The answer was right there in front of my eyes! Here's the cleanest
solution. I forgot about wait_on_bit_lock. I've converted all the locks
to use this instead. We probably need to get priority inheritence working
on this too someday, but for now it's better than wasting memory or
getting into deadlocks.
