This may initialize the mutex multiple times during the first
lock (which may happen in parallel).
pthread provides static initializers. To quote the man page:
Variables of type pthread_mutex_t can also be initialized
statically, using the constants PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER
(for fast mutexes), PTHREAD_RECURSIVE_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP
(for recursive mutexes), and
PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP (for error checking
mutexes).
