I know you already pushed this but what's the point of node driver lock
anyway? There are only two places where the driver lock is used - init
and cleanup. Moreover with the current code still racy, except not
really beacuse init and cleanup will never be called concurrently.
Therefore the lock can be dropped entirely.
