πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea: this function is what you call when you gotta wait after a get feature/input report. like, you sent the thing, now you sit there and wait for the response to come back. that's the entire job. it's the "hold on, I'm waiting for my food to arrive" of kernel functions πŸ“
