I quickly tested it but didn't work. :-(
Actually it is not just pending argument but struct task itself has to
be allocated. I did crude hack to see if it is possible to have it
working with spin mutex gracefully. It can be done if we
pre-allocate some space for the tasks and use fast taskqueue. Does
it make sense to you?
