I think we can live without this method that should never be called outside
the tests (since it modifies state): creating a `BufferResponse` with an
appropriate backlog should yield the same result in the tests

>
> This is a part of work for credit-based network flow control.
> The related works are :
> * We define a new message called {{AddCredit}} to notify the incremental
> credit during data shuffle.
> * Whenever an {{InputChannel}}’s unannounced credit goes up from zero, the
> channel is enqueued in the pipeline.
> * Whenever the channel becomes writable, it takes the next {{InputChannel}}
> and sends its unannounced credit. The credit is reset to zero after each sent.
> * That way, messages are sent as often as the network has capacity and
> contain as much credit as available for the channel at that point in time.
> Otherwise, it would only add latency to the announcements and not increase
> throughput.
