"""Reentrant lock.
This is a mutex-like object which can be acquired by the same
thread more than once. It keeps a reference count of the number
of times it has been acquired by the same thread. Each acquire()
call must be matched by a release() call and only the last
release() call actually releases the lock for acquisition by
another thread.
The implementation uses two locks internally:
__mutex is a short term lock used to protect the instance variables
__wait is the lock for which other threads wait
A thread intending to acquire both locks should acquire __wait
first.
The implementation uses two other instance variables, protected by
locking __mutex:
__tid is the thread ID of the thread that currently has the lock
__count is the number of times the current thread has acquired it
When the lock is released, __tid is None and __count is zero.
