This past week I spent time investigating the cause of a WiFi hang and USB disconnect on Espressif when the lock on an SPI or I2C object was held for a long time. The two things were seemingly unrelated, but it turns out that these locks, implemented as FreeRTOS mutexes, can cause task priority issues due to how FreeRTOS handles potential task priority inversion problems. The solution was not to hold the locks for too long.

I continue to try to fix bugs so we can get the issue count to zero for the 10.0.0 final release.
