Change subject: Fix deadlock on presence state changes.
......................................................................


Fix deadlock on presence state changes.

A deadlock was observed where three threads were competing for different
locks:

* One thread held the hints lock and was attempting to lock a specific
  hint.
* One thread was holding the specific hint's lock and was attempting to
  lock the contexts lock
* One thread was holding the contexts lock and attempting to lock the
  hints lock.

Clearly the second thread was doing the wrong thing here. The fix for
this is to make sure that the hint's lock is not held on presence state
changes. Something similar is already done (and commented about) for
device state changes.
