Oh ... there's an ambiguity in that line. "I'm now going to pass control 
to the scheduler ... no, no I won't; that's exactly what they'll be 
expecting me to do."

I suggest rewriting the sentence as:

"A coroutine can stop itself and pass control to the scheduler."
or
"A coroutine can stop itself, passing control to the scheduler."
