Fix code that could lead to a possible deadlock.
Drop implementations are not called until the end of a statement. The statement changed in this commit therefore took 4 read locks on a RwLock which can lead to problems if a write lock is requested between any of these read locks. The code looks like it would only hold one lock at a time but it does not drop any of the locks until after the arithmatic operations complete, which leads to this situation. See https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=996079046184329f3a9df1cd19c87da8 to see this in action. The fix is to just take one lock and share it between the three calls to num_presses, letting it drop at the end of the scope.
