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) ..
