We probably should have done this 15 years ago. I have created patches
for every remaining user of the four sleep_on variants that are all
broken, and this patch should get applied as soon as all of the other
patches are merged.

If you are reading this changeset because you are looking for the
functions I removed, please convert your code to use wait_event,
wait_for_completion or an open-coded prepare_to_wait loop.
