I tested layout test and unit test on EFL, and there was no regressions.

This looks good to me. It make sense to release the lock immediately after the resource that is protected is no longer modified. Anders, can you take a look ?

I think the patch looks OK, but there seems to be a fundamental problem with EFL if you can get a deadlock in this case.

(In reply to comment #4) > I think the patch looks OK, but there seems to be a fundamental problem with EFL if you can get a deadlock in this case. Thanks. There is indeed a problem with the EFL port. After the enablers in the common code (e.g. like this patch) are landed, the issue with the EFL port will be addressed.

It looks to me that the fix for EFL has a dependency on this patch in the shared code. The EFL specific fixes are part of bug 98580. This bug + bug 98580 + bug 98978 resolves the issue for EFL. I figured that this patch is a good place to start the discussion for these serious of patches.
