Ok, I've pushed out a new series which creates a recursive (counting)
mutex that makes all of this stuff quite easy. Nice to have only two
threads, and to not be worrying about performance here. In particular, I
didn't have to move locks around, except for one case where the existing
code looked like it wasn't locking enough. That's a separate patch.

I'll send the updated series to the list; it's also in my git repository
at:

        git://people.freedesktop.org/~keithp/xserver.git input-thread

This also removes the (controversial) DRI1 changes from this series;
they're tacked ontop of the fd_set patches in my remove-xfree86-sigio
branch.
