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.
