Hi Vivien
We agreed to stop adding _ to functions that assume the lock has been
taken. Now that we check the lock is held in lowest level function, it
quickly becomes clear if the locks are wrong. It either deadlocks, or
it prints a warning when there is an error.
Please don't rename these functions.
