Something like that. But since it's not a single mapping between shadow
entries and handlers, that is we have multiple tasks with multiple
shadow entries and multiple handlers, we can't use a link list (two
different parents per handler).

I was thinking of a bitmask that represents the handlers, and use that
to map which handler gets called for which shadow entry for a
particular task.
