The consideration was
* wait_event_timeout was checkign !drv_data->block - so it it returned
the condition held OR timeout
* since it was a timeout here the condition was NOT met so either both
are true or both are wrong
I think the current logic only makes sense if one assumes that a signal case
is also possible.

yes drv_data->block is 0 | 1 only - so that probably could be dropped
as well

thanks - will refactor and split it into two parts
and see if I can get this tested somehow - no urgency
as its really only cleanup.

thx!
