Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee
the task delays as expected. While the original code does use
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, it does not check for signals, so I believe msleep() is more
appropriate.

I'm fine with changing this; what should the code do if a signal causes
an early return? I switched to msleep() in my patch because the current
code did nothing and that seemed buggy to me.

Thanks for the feedback,
Nish
