I understand (and agree) with the goal of this patch but I wonder (and
I don't know much about the system/context) if holding a mutex while
sleeping won't incur adverse effect on other parts of the system that
weren't use to see this wait.  One way to fix this might be to use
"mutex_trylock()" and let callers retry as they see fit if an
operation is already in progress.
