So like this?

 * Returns:
 * @false if the task state could not be locked.
 * Otherwise, the return value from @func(arg).

I was thinking of this as one of the possible uses of whatever arg
points to, which allows the caller of try_invoke_on_locked_down_task()
and the specified function to communicate whatever they wish.  Then
the specified function could (for example) unconditionally return true
so that the return value from try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() indicated
whether or not the specified function was called.

The current setup is very convenient for the use cases thus far.  It
allows the function to say "Yeah, I was called, but I couldn't do
anything", thus allowing the caller to make exactly one check to know
that corrective action is required.

Indeed we do!  I will fix that as well.
