trying to
cause an interrupt that unblocks a task (maybe releases a resource) while
a task is attempting to block (maybe on the same resource).

The exact combination of task level and ISR level actions vary by task.

Also some of the spintrcritical tests are hard to get to trigger the
conditions. The
tests are trying to generate an interrupt that occurs during a relatively
small
window.
