What is in include/linux/kernel.h line 158

[Antonio Olivares]

Dear folks, 

I have encountered this so called sleeping function several times in a good while (kernel 2.6.27, 2.6.29, 2.6.30, 2.6.31, 2.6.32) Fedora based kernels and compiled kernels from kernel.org, 

I am asking this because I see this again and again.  I would like to know what is in there so if I can do something about it, or just live with it since it appears to be harmless, but anyhow it is annoying :(
