Perhaps the name should be changed, but the concept is the same -- RT- specific sleeping which should be considered involuntary for the purpose of debug checks. Voluntary sleeping is not allowed in an RCU critical section because it will break the critical section on certain flavors of RCU, but that doesn't apply to the flavor used on RT. Sleeping for a long time in an RCU critical section would also be a bad thing, but that also doesn't apply here. -Scott
