Subject: [PATCH v4 24/24] dept: Disable Dept on that map once it's been handled until next turn

Dept works with waits preceeding an event, that might lead a deadlock.
Once the event has been handled, it's hard to ensure further waits
actually contibute to deadlock until next turn, which will start when
a sleep associated with that map happens.

So let Dept start tracking dependency when a sleep happens and stop
tracking dependency once the event e.i. wake up, has been handled.
