I think it is more trouble than it's worth. It also has a lot of
serious restrictions, mostly because it serializes all tasks:
* I can't prioritize tasks (acpi lock release would be better to have prio)
* If one task blocks, then it's completly stuck...
It seems simpler and less fragile to just spawn a thread.
