Though it really cannot happen and really happens, as we have seen... 8)
In any case, Andrew, where is the race, when we enter in sleeping state?
Wakeup is not lost, it is just not required when we are not going
to schedule and force task to running state.
I still do not see how it is possible that task runs in sleeping state.
Apparently, set_current_state is forgotten somewhere. Do you see, where? 8)
