In kernel - right, but doing it from userspace context means you can't
kill userspace until timeout expires.

As far as I can see, that is true. IOW the time-out is not needed,
if it's not completed on the first attempt, you can fail
immediately.


But a bigger issue is it seems to trigger failures for people.
