I assume this patch header needs a little more substance so that less involved folks understand the issue as well. Describing the testcase which reveals the problem would help here too.

Not sure why util_est_enqueue is inline and util_est_dequeue() and util_est_update() aren't?

You would just need a 'unsigned int enqueued' here, like in util_est_enqueue().

Nitpick: 'int cpu' not needed
