I believe a problem may have been introduced by r277922, leading to
filesystem hangs in some scenarios.  It looks like this commit is also
in dumbbell's github fork:

Would be nice if you mailed me with your findings.

Please try this.

Why the conversion of while() to if()?


The reason for a while() when doing msleep/wakeup is typically to prevent superfluous wakeups from signalling early.
