The sequence of your patches is wrong; you must reverse it: as is,
with only patch 1/2 applied, you will get compile errors because
net_busy_flag is undefined.  This breaks bisectability.

Please switch the order of your patches.

When first entering this code, the variable kbd_testc_tms is
(implicitly) initialized as zero;  later, for example when running
multiple network commands, the last used value (i. e. a random number)
is used.  So strictly speaking the comment above is incorrect, as you
don't test for key presses "every second" - the first test may happen
much earlier (even immediately).  I think this should be explained in
the comment to prevent incorrect expectations on the behaviour.



Best regards,
