It is a safety catch for preemption tasks. The worry being that if we
unwind a rq that was previously lite-restored, then on resubmission we
may not coalesce the requests again until perhaps a later interrupt.
It should never happen in practice. It requires a couple of reorderings
to happen at just the right moment, without triggering preemption...
