Looks a heck of a lot more straightforward to me.

FWIW, this is one of those places that could use a temporary variable to
help explain what is going on:

	bool wait_for_lock = !crash;

	/*
	 * ... explain why it doesn't or shouldn't take the lock here
	 */
	if (!stop_memory_enc_conversion(wait_for_lock))
		...

This makes it understandable without looking at the called function.

This also needs a comment about why the lock isn't being released.
