find_lkb seems to be getting an actual, but wrong lkid, so it's returning
the wrong lkb in the receive routines. It happens fairly quickly with
multiple wq threads, but not at all with single. One suspect I'm going to
look at are the ls_stub and fields in the lockspace struct. I'm not
convinced extra send/recv threads give us that much benefit in practice,
so it's not my top priority at the moment.
