Thanks Mark for look into this.You're right. The change for task_state_lock is not right.
Sorry for not look carefully about the change.

Not sure how such a change would affect performance (using the work queue) ... so I am 'afraid' of pushing such a change in any case given the relatively reliable operation of this driver (and the dynamic nature of the changes Dan is making to the SATA side of things for instance ;-} ).
