We disable a whole bunch of checks for trylock, simply because they do
not wait, therefore they cannot deadlock.

But I can't remember if they disable all the cases required to make
subclasses completely redundant -- memory suggests they do, but I've not
verified.

Please expand this Changelog to include definite proof that subclasses
make sense with trylock.
