how to cope with "Scheduling in interrupt" problem

[MingChieh <mingjie.tw@gmail.com>]

Dear all,

I try to modify inet_sendmsg() and inet_recvmsg().
To defer the time to notify a receiver, I use a timer for the problem.
But it causes "Scheduling in interrupt" error.
Is there any method to reform it?

Thank you for tour help
