Based on its name you would think that rqst_should_sleep() would be read-only, not changing anything. But it fact it will clear SP_TASK_PENDING if that was set. This is surprising, and it blurs the line between "check for work to do" and "dequeue work to do". So change the "test_and_clear" to simple "test" and clear the bit once the thread has decided to wake up and return to the caller. With this, it makes sense to *always* set SP_TASK_PENDING when asked, rather than only to set it if no thread could be woken up.
