Currently the mutex dedicated to the protection of the list of registered
protocols is held during all the protocol initialization phase.
Hi Jonathan,

Such a wide locking region is not needed and causes problem when trying to
initialize notifications from within a protocol initialization routine.

Reduce the scope of the protocol mutex.

I haven't checked carefully that the new scope is appropriate but
as a change in of itself, the code is correct and clean.
With that in mind.
I will double check after more testing.
