Johannes Berg 49da38a3ef um: Simplify os_idle_sleep() and sleep longer
There really is no reason to pass the amount of time we should
sleep, especially since it's just hard-coded to one second.

Additionally, one second isn't really all that long, and as we
are expecting to be woken up by a signal, we can sleep longer
and avoid doing some work every second, so replace the current
clock_nanosleep() with just an empty select() that can _only_
be woken up by a signal.

We can also remove the deliver_alarm() since we don't need to
do that when we got e.g. SIGIO that woke us up, and if we got
SIGALRM the signal handler will actually (have) run, so it's
just unnecessary extra work.

Similarly, in time-travel mode, just program the wakeup event
from idle to be S64_MAX, which is basically the most you could
ever simulate to. Of course, you should already have an event
in the list that's earlier and will cause a wakeup, normally
that's the regular timer interrupt, though in suspend it may
(later) also be an RTC event. Since actually getting to this
point would be a bug and you can't ever get out again, panic()
on it in the time control code.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
