Look at the caller of the hook - they check the return value to see if
any more instructions can be issued. If yes, the one highest on the list
is picked.

Yes... I seem to remember the documentation is just wrong for that hook
(and the interface is somewhat broken). As you noted, you can't just
remove insns from the ready list without moving them somewhere else.
