I still don't see how you're gaining from this. If you were writing new 
code and you would say: "you know, this path will only be hit rarely, we 
don't know whether interrupt would work, but we have here this simple 
polling solution, that works" I would understand. But you already have a 
technically-superior solution in place! And it works, right? Why change 
it? On the one hand it's your hardware and it's up to you which direction 
to develop it, and my task is just to help you integrate your work into 
the mainline. On the other hand I really don't see any benefits, sorry. 
I'd prefer not to do this unless you can explain the benefits.

Don't think that's a good idea. cpu_relax() allows the scheduler to switch 
over to a different task, but if none is active, it'll come back instead 
of going to sleep. Unless of course your event really kicks in very 
quickly - much faster than 1ms. But depending on your architecture 
implementation, msleep(1) might also be implemented as a busy look, then 
cpu_relax() would be better.
