Ah, that reminds me.  What's the doneness of the dependent topic?

What I meant was the doneness of mh/split-under-lock actually.

I don't know of any open issues or unaddressed feedback in
split-under-lock. I've gone over the code many times myself and am
pretty confident about it.

I just reviewed the series again, and one thing that I wasn't so happy
about was that it makes many changes to the ref transaction
error-handling code, but that code is not very well tested (and the
content of the error messages is not really tested at all). So I just
submitted another patch series to add more tests in this area [1]. Those
tests turned up a couple of cosmetic problems but nothing serious.

So as far as I know, this series is ready to go. But it is a big and
rather intricate change to an important area of the code, so I hope it
can get merged early in the next release cycle to get wider testing.
