Notifier chain re-implementation (as637): dcdbas re-registers itself
from within the callout. This is incorrect in two respects:
1. Callouts should not register/unregister.
2. It re-registers while the block is still in the list,
which would corrupt the list.
This patch fixes the problem by registering the callout to be the last
one to be called when the event happens.
