Ah, it's me that's confused.  I missed the "!" on ret.  Maybe it'd be
less confusing if you did:

time_left = wait_event_interruptible_timeout(...)
if (!time_left)

Even though you _can_ use "ret", it's less confusing to use a
different variable since (often) ret is an error code.

Speaking of which: do you actually handle the case where you get an
interrupt?  Should the above just be wait_event_timeout()?
