erm, I'm not sure that really improved the code.

Note that wait_event_interruptible() evaluates the condition twice, so
that's now three copies we have in there.  A little helper function would
make this all much better.

Also, feel free to sneak in a s/spin_lock_irq (/spin_lock_irq(/ cleanup
when making changes like this.
