I think a delay of 1 second is probably five times too long even in
worst cases, but if I didn't make mistakes in the code, it won't matter
because a signal will arrive quickly.
Slower machines don't necessarily make the race condition more likely to
occur.
The "window of error" is only the execution of a few lines of code.
This bug was triggered simply by moving from inittop to premount.
Milliseconds of difference.
