So my question is, did we have this problem before commit 3b63aaa70e1?

If we did, then when did it start? Or was it present forever?

Would not the solution be to modify it so that it didn't spawn the other
task (T2), but removed the affected physical devices synchronously?

Well, let's just say I'm not a fan of recursive locks. Is that unavoidable
here?
