Comment (by dgoulet):

 DG1: This seems "dangerous" to me as we pass a possible negative int as an
 unsigned int leading to setting a very large number of cells into the
 cmux:

 {{{
 circuitmux_set_num_cells(cmux, circ, queue->n);
 }}}

 Apart from the above, logic and code looks good to me.

 Although, I'm not really familiar with this subsystem, a review from
 andrea would be desirable.
