People have been trying to "polish" this mess for a long time, and I
think it's better to step back and see what is really needed here.

There is a module parameter, read_timeout, that can only be set at
loading time.  As it can only be modified once, why are we doing an if
statement each and every time it is read from?

Instead, in the module probe function, how about doing something like:
	if (read_timeout >= 0)
		read_timeout = msecs_to_jiffies(read_timeout);
	else
		read_timeout = MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT;

and then only ever use "read_timeout" here in the
wait_event_interruptiable() call?  That should simplify this much more
overall, and hopefully allow us to just get rid of the module parameter
eventually as that's not how drivers should be working at all anymore.

Same goes for write_timeout.

Overall the code should be much simpler and easier to understand, which
is the end goal here.

Can you try doing that instead?

thanks,
