This is very similar to the very the first approach we long time back now.
Ends up queueing multiple users on a mutex.  THat was the bit that people didn't
like about those early proposals.  Ah well, I always thought it was simpler and
cleaner even though there are potentially fairness problems if there are enough
users.

So on that note,

@Lukas, I assume we don't care about the async support for SPDM going forwards?

Thanks,

Jonathan
