Right now, as pointed out in #8132, it is very easy to introduce a subtle race
in the runtime. I believe that this is the cause of the current flakiness on the
bots.
I have taken the last idea mentioned in that issue which is to use a lock around
descheduling and context switching in order to solve this race.
Closes #8132
