commit 58dba5a8129e498d7aaf8811597208f347f7ff31
Author: Philip Withnall <philip tecnocode co uk>
Date:   Thu Dec 8 16:21:45 2011 +0000

    backends: Tidy up prepare() and unprepare() methodsâ mutual exclusion
    
    As discovered in bgo#665728, all our prepare() (and unprepare()) methods are
    currently vulnerable to being run multiple times concurrently from a single
    thread. Add a _pending_prepare flag to all of them to prevent this. It
    doesn't need to be locked, since it should only ever be accessed from a
    single thread (since only a single thread can get through the lock{}
    recursive mutex at once).
    
    Helps: bgo#665728
