From d64810f56147b53e92228c31442e925576314aa2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2015 15:01:13 +1030 Subject: module: Annotate nested sleep in resolve_symbol() Because wait_event() loops are safe vs spurious wakeups we can allow the occasional sleep -- which ends up being very similar.
