I think we should keep it precise for now. Right now, we are only
concerned about the list modification, so just lock around that.

Once we are going to remove dbs_data_mutex, then we can cover more
things under it.

Okay.

I am not sure about including any updates within the lock, which don't
need protection in current state of code.
