Only along the submission path can we guarantee that the locked request is indeed from a foreign engine, and so the nesting of engine/rq is permissible. On the submission tasklet (process_csb()), we may find ourselves competing with the normal nesting of rq/engine, invalidating our nesting. As we only use the spinlock for debug purposes, skip the debug if we cannot acquire the spinlock for safe validation - catching 99% of the bugs is better than causing a hard lockup.
