I actually since changed the above to use a common helper, so was
scratching my head a bit over your comment as it can't really work in
that setup without needing to check for whether ->submitter_task is set
or not. But I do agree this would be nicer, so I'll just return to using
the separate helpers for this and it should fall out nicely. The only
odd caller is the MSG_RING side, so makes sense to have it a bit more
separate rather than try and fold it in with the regular side of using
task_work.

Agree, but a separate thing imho.
