Ok, so due to unlikeliness, you get the seqno early.

As I understand from irc discussion, we have our own const
or stable copy of task struct from now on.

Hmm, you are optimistic that the latency of wakeup will be on par
or greater than the next request completion?

And wait side notices too that we are close and spins,
instead of going back to sleep?

Why the TASK_NORMAL check?
