Yeah, I don't know about this one. This breaks the symmetry with
throtl_enqueue_tg() and it's a bit odd that we aren't at least
WARN_ON_ONCE() on the flag given what the flag tracks. If you want to do
this, I think the prev approach of just removing the flag is better as that
was symmetric at least.

Thanks.
