This one is different because the task state flag is also masked by
UMCG_TASK_STATE_MASK_FULL. But no effect I think. Document says that

'
PREEMPTED: the userspace indicates it wants the worker to be preempted;
there are no situations when both LOCKED and PREEMPTED flags are set at
the same time.
'

The task state flag this time only have UMCG_TF_LOCKED be set even if we
cleared the task state flag.
