Oleg put my concerns very well in the IRC meeting just now:
17:12 <strikov> gaughen: patch is related to reworking locking primitives which means that the fact that it fixes exact issue doesn't mean that it won't break anything else (unexpectedly).
17:12 <strikov> gaughen: it means that we either need to have good enough test suite or (better) wait for upstreaming the change
