Hmm yes, however after seeing your comment...

...here. I believe you made a point here so I think I will just move the 
write_lock(&dt_host_lock) as soon as getting  overlay_node, i.e. on top 
of the call to remove_descendant_nodes_resources(). Therefore we can 
solve the assertion issue of this patch together.

Kind regards,
Henry
