queue. If I shift it before atomic_inc(&sched->hw_rq_count) then I also
need to handle cases when the job was reset and update the counter
properly. I went for the easier implementation as I felt that num_jobs will
correctly represent the load on the scheduler.

But the idea that you suggested can be a potential improvement over what I
have done.
