+       ``when`` should be an absolute time at which the context should time out,
+       as measured by the event loop's clock:
+
+       - If ``when`` is ``None``, the timeout will never trigger.
+       - If ``when < loop.time()``, the timeout will trigger on the next
+         iteration of the event loop.

            Return the current deadline, or ``None`` if the current
            deadline is not set.
