Hey @davseby, wondering if this fix can be merged & released any time soon ? So I can confirm whether or not this is the root cause of the "deadlock of sorts" I observe in my code that relies on ttlcache ? |

I think I've ran into some sort deadlocking issue with
ttlcachecache recently, I haven't been able to pinpoint it exactly yet but upon cursory look atRangemethod it seems to me its usage of mutex isn't 100% correct,in particular it seems we might call the
item != c.items.lru.Back().Next(); item = item.Next()part offorloop withoutc.items.muread-locked - which seems would result into thread-unsafe read (not sure if readingitem.Next()without mutex held is fine or not but readingc.items.lru.Back()probably isn't)same reasoning applies to
RangeBackwardsI guess - but I haven't changed it yet in this PR (waiting for initial review first)
