The problem I am seeing is that many work items can be queued up for the same lun before it goes away. The single threaded queue would have to allow
for only a queue of one and no more. Either that or each work item for a particular lun must have the same memory address so it gets
rejected if it you try to queue a remove to the same lun twice.

Maybe I am not understanding your suggestion correctly.

Thanks,
