David found another issue with priority bumping from mmioflips, where we
are accessing the requests concurrently to them being retired and freed.
Whilst we are skipping the dependency if has been submitted, that is not
sufficient to stop the dependency from disappearing if another thread
retires that request. To prevent we can either employ the struct_mutex (or a
request mutex in the future) to serialise retiring before it is freed.
Alternatively, we need to keep the dependencies alive using RCU whilst
they are being accessed via the DFS.
