Please consider replacing with the following patch:

Description: Use msleep() instead of pf_sleep() to guarantee
the task delays as expected. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is used in the original code,
however there is no check on the return values / for signals, thus I believe
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE (and hence msleep()) is more appropriate. Remove the
definition of pf_sleep().
