Because I didn't want to resend the series immediately. It's confusing
because it's set by tasklet_trylock and cleared by tasklet_unlock.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that, just wait until you see what comes
later :-p

I was thinking about being clear about the ordering.

As you point out, the lock is tasklet_disable, the trylock is just a
trylock. Embrace the insanity, let it flow through you.
