Question: now that we have ->task_state_change, perhaps it makes sense
to redefine fixup_sleep()

#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
#define fixup_sleep() (current->task_state_change = 0)
#else
#define fixup_sleep() do { } while (0)
#endif

and make the WARN() above depend on task_state_change != 0 ?

This is minor, but this way CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP will not imply
a subtle behavioural change.

Oleg.
