Can this be simplified more by disabling once_key with once_mutex held to eliminate the need for the
done boolean? Unless static_branch_disable() is considered to be so slow that it should also be
avoided in sleepable context, deferring to a mutex protected boolean until it completes ...
If "done" boolean is removed this may need an additional check of once_key within
__do_once_sleepable_start() just in case a second caller was blocked on once_mutex.
