Subject: [ruby-core:87259] [Ruby trunk Bug#14742] Deadlock when autoloading different constants in the same file from multiple threads

It looks like the fix was un-reverted in r63392. Thank you for working on this, Eric!

Bug #14742: Deadlock when autoloading different constants in the same file from multiple threads
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14742#change-72249

* Author: eugeneius (Eugene Kenny)
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: ruby 2.6.0dev (2018-05-08 trunk 63355) [x86_64-darwin17]
* Backport: 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
The following example deadlocks consistently:

~~~ ruby
# a.rb
autoload :Foo, __dir__ + "/b"
autoload :Bar, __dir__ + "/b"

t1 = Thread.new { Foo }
t2 = Thread.new { Bar }

t1.join
t2.join

# b.rb
module Foo; end
module Bar; end
~~~

$ ruby a.rb
