Right.

Regardless of whether BLOCKING is set or not, we don't have to hard
guarantee the flush from the drivers. If they do happen to get a 2nd
invocation before being stopped, that doesn't matter. So I think we're
fine with the patch I sent out 5 minutes ago, would be great if Ming
could test it though.
