Looks sane to me, though I've never touched this driver.

BTW just a comment from an outsider here, the "can sleep" terminology
seems a bit misleading here. Just IMO of course, but saying something
"can sleep" sounds like a permissive statement, when actually it's a
restrictive statement being made by the driver (which is in this case
unnecessarily restrictive). The "might sleep" terminology used in one
other place would (again IMO) better communicate what I think is
intended here.

Though this problem is most likely result of mindless copy-and-paste,
it's possible that the terminology made it easier to gloss over. Or I
could just be blowing smoke.

Brian
