Sure, we will definitely do this.

I guess you're talking about 44ecf1df9493e6684cd1bb34abb107a0ffe1078a,
which ensures a 10ms msleep call. We don't have this patch, but as with
CONFIG_HZ=100, msleep() calls are anyway rounded up to 10ms, so I'm not
sure this patch will have a huge impact. But we will try.

Then, there is also de99d5328c6d54694471da28711a05adec708c3b, but it
doesn't seem to be related to our problem. But we will also try with
that one.

Thanks for your very quick feedback!
