Ok, what you mean here is:
- idle_slice is released
- poller_call() calls some unrelated poller
- this unrelated poller triggers execution of poller_call() again
- poller_call() then triggers pollers which depend on the idle_slice
In this situation we end with pollers depending on the idle_slice to be
executed inside of pollers. Yes, we don't want that, so let's add
acquiring the idle_slice before calling into poller functions back. I
hadn't thought about this situation.
I fixed the other things you mentioned as well.
