Re: [Bugme-new] [Bug 12201] New: long wait in call_usermodehelper()/ queue_work() / wait_for_completion()

If you replace /sbin/modprobe in the kernel module loader, does the
delay go away:
echo /bin/true > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe

Yes, that does reduce the delay significantly. The timing of the socket() call went from about 1500000us to 430000us. This points the finger at modprobe it seems?
