Thanks!

For series:

Reported-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com>
Tested-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com>

But maybe one of these patches should reference that this fixes
BUG: sleeping function... so that others can quickly find this
fix (if they're bisecting or whatever). For the same reason, it
might be useful for this series to be just one patch.

Regards,
Peter Hurley
