Some time ago I created the attached state diagrams for myself to avoid

it has been a while since I had a look at it. Do you think it would be
useful to add these diagrams somewhere in the Documentation directory?

Can you add a step for the mapping between software and
hardware queues?
Also the actual submission to the LLDD (in step 'executing') could do
with a bit more emphasis.
And maybe the fontsize could be a tad smaller; currently it's hard to
figure out which label goes where, expecially in the bottom half.

Thanks Hannes for the review. How about the attached second version of
these diagrams?

I think they are a little confusing. Some of it is specific to non-fs
requests, yet you have the plugging path in there as well. Was the
intent to just show the PC path?
