Now this function can succeed or fail because of ETIMEDOUT or an
interrupt. I think you should return -EINTR or maybe -ESYSRESTART if
interrupted.
Rodrigo, you are right. Marcos, could you please send updated patch that
returns different error code for timeout vs interrupt condition?

I dropped the patch for now.

Thanks.
