Hmm... perhaps it's cleanest to stop the work from scheduling before we
proceed?

close():
	while (!test_and_set(SHED))
		flush();

	lock(sk);
	...

We just need to move init work, no?

FWIW I never tested his async crypto stuff, I wonder if there is a way
to convince normal CPU crypto to pretend to be async?
