Public bug reported:

In ip_lib library, the methods calling Pyroute commands are decorated with two 
functions (in this order):
- @privileged.default.entrypoint
- @lockutils.synchronized("privileged-ip-lib")

"synchronized" decorator holds the execution of the function until the
lock is released. Using the current decorator ordering, this active wait
is done inside the privsep context. This can exhaust the number of
execution threads reserved for the privsep daemon.
