Yup. That started the transition to claim_direct_mode to avoid the locking
issues. There are probably a few drivers that never got there but
in theory moving the setting of this parameter earlier should now
be fine as the original race condition is closed (subject to a few
drivers that still have that race condition)

I think we are 'now' fine to apply what Lars originally suggested to solve
this issue. There are still some difference between pre and post functions
but for many usecases they no longer matter (if curious just look at what
remains being called between them).
