I checked, it would not.

This did not work either.

Neither calling erts_deliver_time() only if the poll call returned zero
workable descriptors.

And, because there are quite a few variables related to time, atomic
operations are not an easy solution either. Perhaps something like
seqlock, invented exactly in the context of timekeeping, would do the job.
