Comment (by duck_):

 I believe this occurs even when post content is changed (and it's not a
 draft) as edit_post() only occurs on autosave for changed (auto-)drafts,
 see admin-ajax.php line 972 - 984. The content changing only affects
 whether or not a revision gets written to the DB.

 So I think the situations are:

  1. It's a changed (auto-)draft and is overwritten by edit_post() which
 updates the post lock
  1. Otherwise, the post lock isn't updated as `isset( $_POST['auto_draft']
 ) && ( $_POST['auto_draft'] != '1'` is never true.

 i.e. _edit_lock is not updated when not draft ''or'' not changed.

 Verified by editing a post, adding to the content, waiting for the
 autosave to occur and then checking that the value in the database hasn't
 changed.

 Anyway it's the same fix. Good catch.
