You can't do that unless you use external locks to mediate.
talloc is *NOT* MT-safe internally.

You can use separate contexts from separate threads, so long
as they are individual top-level contexts.

Look at the function test_pthread_talloc_passing() in
lib/talloc/testsuite.c for an example of this.
