Hello.
The functions await() and asleep() in kern_synch.c
are marked as EXPERIMENTAL/UNTESTED.
Is this comment still valid? Does anyone have used
those functions successfully? Should I better not
use them in my device driver code for RELENG_4?
How do I correctly cancel a request (as I should do
according to the man page): "asleep (NULL, 0, NULL, 0)"?
Any help appreciated.

The await family was removed in 5.x and beyond, so trying to
use them in 4.x will make your driver very unportable. There
are better ways than await to handle delayed events.
