/**
 *  Objects bound with domains
 *
 *  First, we need some object to have its locked and unlocked part.
 *  This is accomplished typically by the following pattern:
 *
 *    struct foo_public {
 *      ...			// Public fields
 *      DOMAIN(bar) lock;	// The assigned domain
 *    };
 *
 *    struct foo_private {
 *      struct foo_public;	// Importing public fields
 *      struct foo_private **locked_at;	// Auxiliary field for locking routines
 *      ...			// Private fields
 *    };
 *
 *    typedef union foo {
 *      struct foo_public;
 *      struct foo_private priv;
 *    } foo;
 *
 *  All persistently stored object pointers MUST point to the public parts.
 *  If accessing the locked object from embedded objects, great care must
 *  be applied to always SKIP_BACK to the public object version, not the
 *  private one.
 *
 *  To access the private object parts, either the private object pointer
 *  is explicitly given to us, therefore assuming somewhere else the domain
 *  has been locked, or we have to lock the domain ourselves. To do that,
 *  there are some handy macros.

 *  These macros can be used to define specific macros for given class.
 *
 *  #define FOO_LOCK_SIMPLE(foo)	LOBJ_LOCK_SIMPLE(foo, bar)
 *  #define FOO_UNLOCK_SIMPLE(foo)	LOBJ_UNLOCK_SIMPLE(foo, bar)
 *
 *  Then these can be used like this:
 *
 *  void foo_frobnicate(foo *f)
 *  {
 *    // Unlocked context
 *    ...
 *    struct foo_private *fp = FOO_LOCK_SIMPLE(f);
 *    // Locked context
 *    ...
 *    FOO_UNLOCK_SIMPLE(f);
 *    // Unlocked context
 *    ...
 *  }
 *
 *  These simple calls have two major drawbacks. First, if you return
 *  from locked context, you don't unlock, which may lock you dead.
 *  And second, the foo_private pointer is still syntactically valid
 *  even after unlocking.
 *
 *  To fight this, we need more magic and the switch should stay in that
 *  position.
 *
 *  First, we need an auxiliary _function_ for unlocking. This function
 *  is intended to be called in a local variable cleanup context.

 *  #define FOO_LOCK(foo, fpp)	LOBJ_LOCK(foo, fpp, foo, bar)

 *
 *      // Finishing context with no unlock at all
 *    } while (0);
 *
 *    // Here is fpp invalid and the object is back unlocked.
 *    ...
 *  }
 *
 *  There is no explicit unlock statement. To unlock, simply leave the block
 *  with locked context.
 *

/*
 *  This for-cycle employs heavy magic to hide as much of the boilerplate
 *  from the user as possibly needed. Here is how it works.
 *
 *  First, the for-1 clause is executed, setting up _pobj, to the private
 *  object pointer. It has a cleanup hook set.
 *
 *  Then, the for-2 clause is checked. As _pobj is non-NULL, _pobj->locked_at
 *  is initialized to the _pobj address to ensure that the cleanup hook unlocks
 *  the right object.
 *
 *  Now the user block is executed. If it ends by break or return, the cleanup
 *  hook fires for _pobj, triggering object unlock.
 *
 *  If the user block executed completely, the for-3 clause is run, executing
 *  the cleanup hook directly and then deactivating it by setting _pobj to NULL.
 *
 *  Finally, the for-2 clause is checked again but now with _pobj being NULL,
 *  causing the loop to end. As the object has already been unlocked, nothing
 *  happens after leaving the context.
 *
 *  #define FOO_LOCKED(foo, fpp)	LOBJ_LOCKED(foo, fpp, foo, bar)
 *
 *  Then the previous code can be modified like this:
 *
 *  void foo_frobnicate_safer(foo *f)
 *  {
 *    // Unlocked context
 *    ...
 *    FOO_LOCKED(foo, fpp)
 *    {
 *	// Locked context, fpp is valid here
 *
 *	if (something) return;	// This implicitly unlocks
 *	if (whatever) break;	// This unlocks too
 *
 *      // Finishing context with no unlock at all
 *    }
 *
 *    // Unlocked context
 *    ...
 *
 *    // Locking once again without an explicit block
 *    FOO_LOCKED(foo, fpp)
 *	do_something(fpp);
 *
 *    // Here is fpp invalid and the object is back unlocked.
 *    ...
 *  }
 *
 *
 *  For many reasons, a lock-check macro is handy.
