Helps all of wine:

ntsync driver to handle Windows locking types enabling Wine to work much better on many workloads (i.e. games). The driver framework was in 6.13, but now it's enabled and fully working properly. Should make many SteamOS users happy. Even comes with tests!

I wonder how much improvements is it going to bring to Proton, though. I don't remember the last time I ran a game on pure WINE.

Had to run the bazaar on wine. Apparently wine has a bug though where the game freezes when you tab out at any point. I have a windows VM now...
