Instead of locking it throughout, I think we can keep my initial patch
and just execute the balance callbacks in proxy() before dropping the
rq lock. I *think* that will make it work properly, but I could be
missing something.

Anyway I see the issue you bring up, I took care of balance CBs queued
from *other CPUs* while the rq lock is dropped, but the current CPU
executing proxy() could itself have queued balance callbacks. Dropping
the rq lock then causes other CPUs to see the proxy() CPU's balance
CBs in the callback list.

Anyway I will try the above and get back to you. Thanks so much again
for the insights. Will test as you suggested below.

Thanks,

- Joel
