PyMutex_Lock(&tables_lock) cannot be used "free" allocator hooks which don't acquire the GIL.
Maybe PyMutex_Lock(&tables_lock) should be preferred in functions which hold the GIL?

I don't think it matters. TABLES_LOCK() didn't detach the thread state before, no need to now. (In fact, some unpredictable things might happen if another thread takes the GIL and then uses tracemalloc.)
