I started looking into this part and reading MS-NRPC. Using the lock
only for sending the request would mean using the async calls
dcerpc_netr_LogonSamLogon_send() and dcerpc_netr_LogonSamLogon_recv()
instead of the sync one dcerpc_netr_LogonSamLogon().

netlogon_creds_client_check() is simply a memcmp(), so the client
already has the expected reply for verifying the server response.

Besides LogonSamLogon, the same changes have to be made for all calls
using the struct netr_Authenticator.

Looking at the code, source3/rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c might be a good
place to make those changes. Maybe this file would be also a better
place to access the schannel tdb.

I will continue from here, just let me know in case i am heading in
the wrong direction.
