These two drivers use identical code for their procfs status file handling, which contains a small race against status data becoming available while reading the file.
This uses wait_event_interruptible instead to fix this particular race and eventually get rid of all sleep_on instances. There seems to be another race involving multiple concurrent readers of the same procfs file, which I don't try to fix here.
