Might have intended "that the" and not "the the"

And this is a relatively long sentence.

Perhaps something like:

			if (!atomic_read(&queue->set_pci_flags_count)) {
				/*
				 * there's no outstanding PCI any more so:
				 * o request a PCI to be sure that the PCI
				 *   will wake at some time in the future
				 * o flush packed buffers that might still be
				 *   hanging around (which can happen if no
				 *   further send was requested by the stack)
				 */
