add patch to disable graph locking

There are still some issues with graph locking, e.g. deadlocks during
backup canceling [0] and initial attempts to fix it didn't work [1].
Because the AioContext locks still exist, it should still be safe to
disable graph locking.

+Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Revert "graph-lock: Disable locking for now""
+
+This reverts commit 3cce22defb4b0e47cf135444e30cc673cff5ebad.
+
+There are still some issues with graph locking, e.g. deadlocks during
+backup canceling [0]. Because the AioContext locks still exist, it
+should be safe to disable locking again.
+
+From the original 80fc5d2600 ("graph-lock: Disable locking for now"):
+
+> We don't currently rely on graph locking yet. It is supposed to replace
+> the AioContext lock eventually to enable multiqueue support, but as long
+> as we still have the AioContext lock, it is sufficient without the graph
+> lock. Once the AioContext lock goes away, the deadlock doesn't exist any
+> more either and this commit can be reverted. (Of course, it can also be
+> reverted while the AioContext lock still exists if the callers have been
+> fixed.)
