This is true, but any thread that is attempting to obtain the
host lock will have already obtained the H_LOCK.   This means
that any other thread attempting to obtain the H_LOCK will block
and that is just about everything.

If would be useful if you could post the patch that you are
testing so that others can look at it and perhaps test it
in parallel.
