Hm... I could've sworn I thought about this case when I wrote this code,
but your analysis looks correct. I do remember that I didn't do this
because I was worried about a race like so:

add_wait_queue()
                        kyber_domain_wake()
			\_ list_del_init()
remove_wait_queue()
\_ list_del()

But thinking about it some more, list_del() is probably safe after
list_del_init()?

Have you been able to reproduce this? I have the following patch to
force the domain token pools to one token, I imagine with the right
workload we can hit it:
