Thanks. I understand your reluctance. I am not completely convinced of the optimality of the solution, but to me it looks like the best way forward at the moment. I want to proceed slowly with this, to make it as little "hacky" and obtrusive as possible.

I can't commit this patch yet because it replaces the sequence mutex with a non-recursive rwlock. The biggest offender using recursive locks here is the gdb-remote register context, so I have started to do some cleanups there first, so I am able to get rid of the recursion. (The motivation for https://reviews.llvm.org/D23553).
