So, awhile back I tried to "serialize" this by moving timed-out jobs
into their own timed-out-dedicated list, then freeing them asynchronously,
but I never got it to work reliably due to races with low-level drivers and
assumptions made way back.

My idea was to atomic-move timed-out jobs into their own list, at the time of
timeout, and later asynchronously to free them (or better yet, inquire about
their state, and free them or move them back--ideally the inquiry is atomic
and done at timeout time before being moved to the timeout list). Anyway...

But I found out that all these knobs and levers weren't in place and I was
getting problems with it and it never materialized.

The paradigm was loosely "let someone else do it", like, "on an event,
move it to a list, and let someone else handle it", or "on an event, mark
it, and let someone else handle it". (loosely borrowed from an iSCSI target
I did many many years ago--it worked well and there were no races, even with
out-of-order executions.)

If you guys have any ideas to that end, maybe we can try it out.

Luben
