Yup. I was working on the likelihood of that happening being small
enough to below the level of care :)

The semaphore being 64 requests ago and still not retired? That's like
igt levels of stress :)

Hmm, at one point I was using the history to determine whether this
request itself had a semaphore, but that's gone. So we can just use

if (signal->semaphore && !node_started(signal))
	node->semaphore |= signal->semaphore;

Everything is/will-be aligned to a pointer, and this gave us a deeper
chain :)

However, the chain is moot, so unsigned int is fine. And we can call it
flags if we aren't keeping the chain.
