We have an interface that does exactly what this code does, but isn't
being used. As part of my global efforts to standardize sleeping code
in the kernel, I think this change makes some sense. It provides a
*good* example to copy&paste developers. It also means this is one less
place that needs to be modified for eventually virtualized (tickless)
kernels.

Thanks,
Nish
