Close race condition in multi instance IPC
P9 Doorbells operate differently than P8 IPI mechanism, creating
a race condition. Basically because the HB kernel turns a
doorbell into a message, and then is ready for another one -- it
can lose the next one since repeated messages with same key are
dropped (IPC handling clears memory comm area, other HB instances
notice, fill and drop a doorbell before getting back into kernel)
