I think I see what you are saying... it seems like we have always
just freed them and to heck with whatever was waiting on them.

Maybe in all the places I detect something bad, set the return code
and goto out, perhaps  I should also jamb the bad return code
into op->downcall.status and goto wakeup intead of out?

Our infant fuzzer isn't really up to making test errors show up
there, I'd probably have to put some test weirdo stuff in
the userspace part that does the writev to make some test
failures...
