These might be a bit controversial. The process lock was held
for some long periods of time for tweaking consoles. These
can deadlock with some of lock holds I introduced recently. I
would argue that if two threads are fighting over the console,
you're gonna have trouble anyway, and the process locks here
weren't saving us from anything. If we want to do a console
lock then we should probably introduce a new lock - maybe held
for the duration of a lxc-start with console or a lxc-console.
Actually that's probably a good idea... But here I just drop
the locks which make lxc-start-ephemeral deadlock.
