Currently, each request is emitting SCHEDULE_IN, but then being
amalgamated if in the same context as the earlier. Then we only see
SCHEDULE_OUT from the final request in the context batch. It sounds like
you need to apply the force-single-submission patch first, and then the
context status notifier. Please send them in a single series, in the
order they need to be applied.
