Yeah, now it's thread safe. But still it's a singleton, as despite port
and host are incapsulated into the class, the internal fs handle is global
for all the class instances. If that's what is needed, that's fine. But I
guess it's not so.
Otherwise the create_object callback is vital to utilize. You could then
move the port and host initialization into the constructor, or
additionally implement the read_property/write_property callback for the
current syntax to stay, or implement setters/getters. Anyway the fs, port
and host members would move into an internal object struct. Another good
example on how to do this
