Correct me if I'm wrong, but we shouldn't be able to get here if the
waitqueue isn't active, so perhaps a WARN for the else?

This else feels weird to me. I think we'd want to decrease at least by a
multiple of KICK, or HUNG if seqno is actually moving. I'm also not
certain I understand why we're worried about DoS. Did that conversation
happen somewhere I can't find?
