Hmm... I am a little concerned about the wait here, since we don't know
what kind of thread this is.

Any chance we could kick off a _nfs41_proc_sequence asynchronously, and
then perhaps requeue the original task to wait for the next free slot? 
I suppose one issue there would be if the 'original task is an earlier
call to _nfs41_proc_sequence, but perhaps that can be worked around?
