Thanks for the explanation.

Why don't you get this in the probe? Besides where are you
"releasing" it?

yeah... this was already already pointed out, I think you can
remove it.

why do you want to use the atomic sleeps? Isn't uslee_range()
good for this case?

Thanks!

Thanks for the comment!

/need/Need/ for consistency.
