It's probably safe to use, but it's not what its original purpose was
and you should use another function/macro. This is an annotation issue
and your use of it is inconsistent with how it's used in voluntary
preempt. I mentioned it before in a previous post. Folks will correct
me if I'm wrong but you should use another macro or function.
