I sent a month ago. Thanks.
I'm wondering why we're not seeing a splat for this. Usually the kernel will warn if you sleep during atomic context. Does this mean we're just not hitting that case? readx_poll_timeout() has a might_sleep_if(), and therefore it should always cause the splat.
Any ideas why this has gone unnoticed for all this time?
