Something troubles me. Here, you've set the request on load. But you
can be preempted at any time (preemption gets disabled just after).

I have the feeling that should you get preempted right here, you'll
end-up having accumulated the wrong amount of steal time, as the
request put via load when you'll get scheduled back in will only get
processed after a full round of entry/exit/entry, which doesn't look
great.

Am I getting it right?
