I do worry that if there are, for instance, a lot of uevents coming in,
this could starve the uxlsnr thread, since other threads could be
grabbing and releasing the vecs lock, but if it's usually being held,
then the uxlsnr thread might never try to grab it when it's free, and it
will keep losing its place in line. Also, every time that the vecs lock
is dropped between ppoll() calls, a wakeup will get triggered, even if
the lock was grabbed by something else before the ppoll thread runs.
I suppose the only way to deal with that would be to move the locking
commands to a list handled by a separate thread, so that it could block
without stalling the non-locking commands.

We should never return to uxsock_listen() while the lock is held. The
code doesn't, but the fact that CLT_WORK is a separate state makes it
look like this could be possible. Since we must never be in CLT_WORK
without first being in CLT_WAIT_LOCK, I don't see any point for having a
separate CLT_WAIT_LOCK state. CLT_WORK should do both the locking if
necessary, and calling the handler.
