Let's put this on the todo list.

You mean to ensure that someone sleeping in pd->status() doesn't delay
that until its too late?

I would prefer less work queues ;) But I presume you split out the
indack_wq in order to improve the likelihood of meeting the latency
requirements of the remote side.

Perhaps just wrap the status() calls with a status-mutex and then remove
that by reworking the QMI interface to allow us to remove the indack
work?
