Hi Viresh,
The revert request came at Morten's suggestion. He has comments on the code and
technical reasons
why he believes that the approach is not the best one as well as some scenarios
where possible race

Morten, what is the latest update in this area. I'm not sure I have followed
your discussion with
Vincent on the subject.
Regards,
Liviu
