It seems to me all the free move function overloads in thread/locks.hpp that 
take a thread_move_t as an argument, like:

template<typename Mutex>
inline detail::thread_move_t<unique_lock<Mutex> > 
move(detail::thread_move_t<unique_lock<Mutex> > x)
{
    return x;
}

could be condensed into a single overload living in the detail namespace:

namespace detail
{
    template<typename T>
    thread_move_t<T> move(thread_move_t<T> x)
    {
        return x;
    }
}

Or, maybe 2 overloads that pass through a const or non-const reference if you 
want to try and optimize.

Also, are the free move functions an official part of the interface?  I don't 
see them mentioned in the docs.
