Summary:                    [patch] hint state changes deadlock/race
Description: 
VERY similar to https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=18165, but this is a
different deadlock path, so I have
raised a separate report.

Thread 1: taskprocessor  -> handle_statechange
    Lock order = conlock, hints, hint, pvt
Thread 2: chan_sip.c:  handle_request_do -> handle_response_notify
    Lock order = pvt, conlock

Thread2 only gets into the conlock if STATECHANGEQUEUE is true, ie. there
are rapid state changes happening on a subscribed hint.

I haven't tried merging to 1.8 yet, but you could simply replace that
AST_LIST_TRAVERSE block with: watchers =
ao2_container_count(hint->callbacks);
The plan is to merge this fix to all branches up from 1.6.
