It's nearly impossible for me to find out which mutex is deadlocking.
There are 4 mutexs locked / released during xine_play (or one of the
possibly inlined functions) and to be honest I have little idea which
other thread is also involved in the deadlock (maybe some xine-lib
junkie could help you more with that).
It would be great if you could reproduce the same problem with a
xine-lib which has been compiled with debug support (so you'd get line
numbers in the back trace - that makes life _a lot_ easier and maybe I
could identify the problem that way) and the least optimization
possible ... :-)

Or I could try playing around a bit with your patchset and trying to
reproduce it over here. Because I already have debug builds for
xine-lib and compiling a new kernel can take place in the background
it wouldn't be much effort for me.
