It is OK with me, please push it.

I do feel that the entire unlocked IO feature is poorly implemented in
the way that it requires changes to all code that wants to use it, but I
don't have a solution for that.  Can't you set some global flag that
makes all getc calls unlocked?  Instead of modifying all code to call
getc_unlocked instead of getc.
