This is very bad.  LOCK_PROFILING should have no visible effect on
userland.  That is precisely what xinpcb, xunpcb, xtcpcb etc. are for:
to isolate userland from kernel structures.  They should not contain
any locks or anything else which would be affected by LOCK_PROFILING
or other kernel options.
