Looks good.
It might help Benjamin too to add sleepable callbacks.

Separately, noticed that jit_subprogs() doesn't copy
sleepable flag into subprogs's aux.
This patch doesn't change that.

Though subprogs are never called directly
probably worth a follow up to copy the flag into subprogs?
Just for completeness.
