Any comments would be appreciated.

Description: Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout()
to guarantee the task delays as expected.

This would make more sense as ssleep(3), wouldn't it?

Actually, this patch should be dropped! :) msleep() will ignore any wait-queue
events (triggered because of the prepare_to_wait() call). So please revert, if
applied.

Thanks,
