Oh, I see. Do you happen to remember where that lock is
acquired/released? I saw the up/down macros in the eCos code at the
points where the RTEMS mutex_lock/unlock would be called (e.g. in
jffs2_new_inode). up/down end up calling Cyg_Mutex::unlock/lock, which
aren't empty, so it seems that there's a bit of fine-grained locking
there.
