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?
