Yes, as I can't see any neccecarity for an additional lock.

I'm not willing to buy, that a global lock is the solution for something, what 
breaks a per chip lock. If there is an issue with the chip locking, then this 
issue has to be solved and nothing else.

Can anybody please explain how you manage to break the locking and the command 
order ?
