without a comment it is not clear why do we bother to set RUNNING here.

Perhaps we can add another helper which sets current->state = RUNNING?
Just to self-document the usage.

We can even make it depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP (not sure this
makes sense). But in this case it should set ->task_state_change = 0
and __might_sleep() should take !task_state_change into account.

Oleg.
