Okay, now I get it.  It's an invariant of the driver: the semaphore's
value is always equal to queue->size.  You might consider putting this
in a comment, in some future update.

Incidentally, how often do you expect the queue to contain more than
one entry?  If that happens a lot, it would be more efficient to
implement the queue as a ring (with first and last pointers) than to
call memmove() every time an entry is removed.
