This is bad for other users of usb_control_msg/usb_bulk_msg that depend on
the sleep to be interruptible. Instead of bouncing back and forth whether
those routines shall sleep interruptibly or uninterruptibly, we should either
provide two routines or a parameter that specifies whether the sleep
shall be interruptible, or create a local version of usb_control_msg
if ov511 is the only user requiring uninterruptible sleep.
