Good point. So how about putting fsleep() into rusk/kernel/time/delay.rs
and add that into the "F:" entry of TIMER subsystem? Since "sleep"s are
a set of particular usage of timers which don't directly interact with a
timer or hrtimer struct, so I feel it's better to have their own
file/mod rather than sharing it with timers. Plus this results in less
potential conflicts with Andreas' hrtimer series.
