Previously, we were adding synchronous requests to request list, we
were doing it after checking if request existed. However, we only
removed the request from the request list if we have succeeded in
sending the request. In case of failed request send, we left an
invalid pointer in the request list.

Fix this by only adding request to the list once we succeed in
sending it.
