Sorry for the delay.


Could you just add a comment about the lock ordering. It will be helpful
to new engineers/reviewers to check for errors.

You can use your helper is_in_waiter_list().

Is this supposed to go before the schedule_timeout call?

If we are here and schedule_timeout returned non zero then our wait_cmdr
has been woken up from the unmap thread because it freed some space, so
we do not want to again add ourself and call unmap again.
