Any reason that this is its own function and not in the
`NullBlkModule::init` function?

This error would only happen if `rq` is not the only ARef to that
request, right?

Am I correct in thinking that this function is never actually called,
since all requests that are queued are immediately ended?

This change should probably be in the patch before (seems like an
artifact from rebasing).
