Subject: [PATCH] delay.h: add __must_check to msleep_interruptible
Code calling msleep_interruptible() must be aware that sleep time might be
shorter than intended as a result of a signal being caught. Code not checking
the return value of msleep_interruptible() is probably buggy, unless it's doing
the signal_pending() check itself, which is redundant.
