Coverity CID 1531549 reports a concurrent data access violation because
be->users is being accessed without holding the mutex.
I wonder how useful is this mutex anyhow, since the code paths should
be protected by the BQL lock. If you agree, I will send an update to
simply drop be->lock and solve this report.
