Thanks, it's much clearer now.

We should call wait_event_* here.

Tests should in general be as fast as possible. Waiting for 100ms for
the success case is not ok. We have ~500 tests at the moment, if every
test was doing that it would take at least 50s to run all our unit
tests, while it takes less than a second at the moment on a capable
machine.

And also, I'm not sure we actually need to make sure it never happened.
If only because nothing actually guarantees it wouldn't have happened
after the timeout anyway, so the test isn't definitive.

I guess what we could test is whether the action is still in the actions
list through a function only exported to tests. If it's no longer in the
action list, then it won't be run.

But unless we ever have a bug, I'm not sure it's worth testing for that.
