Hi Nhat,
Thanks for reviewing!

Chengming's test data is for the whole series. so i can't find the
proper commit to put the data. but it seems Andrew does have
a good habit to collect some important cover-letter info to commits,
so in v2, i'd keep the commit message as is.

Thanks. I am changing the name to is_sleepable according to
Yosry's suggestion. As a result, the comment is removed as well.
