    I would offer just a 'general observation' that there seems to be more
kernel locks/locking structures/mutexes that are required for basic use. If
some sort of simplification to make the code easier to work on and maintain
if fewer locking structures were used and the ground rules for when and
where they were applied we defined in your document. Yes this might require
some 'rework' of locks in general on the front end, but I think it might
make the code that is in -current easier to maintain and enhance in the
future (and certainly easier for new comers to work on as well) ..
