Hi~, maybe we can mark some class with threadSafe annotation and guardedby 
annotation to mark the class, variable and method

> Currently the namespace and the block management layer share one giant lock. 
> One consequence that we have seen more and more often is that the namespace 
> hangs due to excessive activities from the block management layer. For 
> example, the NN might take a couple hundred milliseconds to handle a large 
> block report. Because the NN holds the write lock during processing the block 
> report, all namespace requests are paused. In production we have seen these 
> lock contentions cause long latencies and instabilities in the cluster.
> This umbrella jira proposes to separate the lock used by namespace and the 
> block management layer.
