31  * The transmit-side code uses an allocation process which is similar
32  * to some theme park roller-coaster rides, where riders sit in cars
33  * that can go individually, but work better in a train.
34  *
35  * 1)	RESERVE a place - this doesn't refer to any specific car or
36  *	seat, just that you will get a ride.  The attempt to RESERVE a
37  *	place can fail if all spaces in all cars are already committed.
38  *
39  * 2)	Prepare yourself; this may take an arbitrary (but not unbounded)
40  *	time, and you can back out at this stage, in which case you must
41  *	give up (RENOUNCE) your place.
42  *
43  * 3)	CLAIM your space - a specific car (the next sequentially
44  *	numbered one) is allocated at this stage, and is guaranteed
45  *	to be part of the next train to depart.  Once you've done
46  *	this, you can't back out, nor wait for any external event
47  *	or resource.
48  *
49  * 4)	Occupy your car - when all CLAIMED cars are OCCUPIED, they
50  *	all depart together as a single train!
51  *
52  * 5)	At the end of the ride, you climb out of the car and RENOUNCE
53  *	your right to it, so that it can be recycled for another rider.
54  *
55  * For each rider, these have to occur in this order, but the riders
56  * don't have to stay in the same order at each stage.  In particular,
57  * they may overtake each other between RESERVING a place and CLAIMING
58  * it, or between CLAIMING and OCCUPYING a space.
59  *
60  * Once a car is CLAIMED, the train currently being assembled can't go
61  * without that car (this guarantees that the cars in a single train
62  * make up a consecutively-numbered set).  Therefore, when any train
63  * leaves, we know there can't be any riders in transit between CLAIMING
64  * and OCCUPYING their cars.  There can be some who have RESERVED but
65  * not yet CLAIMED their places.  That's OK, though, because they'll go
66  * into the next train.
