How about this: keep the timeout global, but also introduce a
(relatively short, say 10 or 15 seconds) timeout after which a warning
is printed. Even if nothing is actually killed, having workers (be it
insmod or something else) take longer than a couple of seconds is
likely a sign that something is seriously off somewhere.

I don't agree with the statement that something is seriously off when it takes more then 10 to 15 seconds.

When probing only one hard disk drive, then I do agree that something is seriously off after 10 to 15 seconds.

When probing a SAS bus with one hundred hard disk drives in standby mode, then I do expect that to take longer then 10 to 15 seconds.
