Only my negligence.

Unfortunately I can't add anything to my next tree at the moment, I have
to wait until the merge window closes.

Anyway, on the patch, if you look at the definition of msg_wait, it
says:

/*
 * We use a mutex to make sure that only one thing can send a set a
 * message at one time.  The mutex is claimed when a message is sent
 * and freed when both the send and receive messages are free.
 */

So if you use msg_wait, you need to grab that mutex, or bad things can
happen.

However, that means that a non-critical operation, grabbing the time
left, can result in blocking a more critical operations, pinging the
watchdog.  So it would be better if you could use another set of
messages for doing this.
