There obviously isn't a way to wait for all tasks that want to enter the
icebox since there's no task flag for this, will tasks need to add extra
locking? Or otherwise how do we make sure that a task hasn't *just* gone
past icebox() and starts executing the code that the icebox() is
supposed to prevent?
