// below, |mRemoteStackDepth|, and races don't matter to the
// queue.)
//

// |?{mStack.size() == 1}|, then other side "finished with us,"
// and went back to its own business. That business might have
// included sending any number of async message |A<*| until
// sending a blocking message |(S< | C<)|. If we had more than
// one RPC call on our stack, the other side *better* not have
// sent us another blocking message, because it's blocked on a
