The last sentence doesn't really make sense. I can figure it out
because I know what the slowpath does, but as you see in my version, I
go into a little more detail to why it's not an issue to break out of
that spin on TASK_RUNNING.
Thanks for the feedback! I'll take your suggested wording as is and
add the two paragraphs about user-visible impact of the issue.
