I would be surprised if it made a change, thanks for checking. Since
you're not pulling devices out of your system, is really nothing that
needs ref counting here. You don't have something running turning wbt
on/off during the run, I assume?

The whole thing is very odd. You do have lots of processes exiting with
segfaults and similar. The only thing I can think of is the wait queue
entry becoming invalid since it's on the stack, but I don't see how that
can happen. We should exit the wait path normally and remove ourselves
from the list.
