Code in kernel which incorrectly used the non-killable variants could
end up having waits killed improperly. The respective killable waits
have been upstream for a while:
o wait_for_completion_killable()
o wait_for_completion_killable_timeout()
swait has been upstream since v4.6. Older kernels have had the
above variants in place for a long time.
