Just to shortcut things as I'm looking at this.
That's currently handled in patch 2. Argument being this is a direct conversion
of existing code, whereas changing to xxx_poll_timeout() is an improvement.

I'm fine with it just being rolled into first patch with a note in the patch
description though if that works better.
