Hey Folks,

I have a kernel thread running as a daemon, and I want to make it sleep for
a while in an infinite loop. I guess I can use "tsleep" but it only timeout
after intergal system ticks, which only has millisecond granularity, but I
want to make it sleep in some microsecond. Is there any way I can do this in
the kernel?
