The current uart_fifo_timeout() returns jiffies, which is not always the most convenient for callers. Add a variant uart_fifo_timeout_ms() that returns the timeout in milliseconds. NOTES: - msecs_to_jiffies() rounds up, unlike nsecs_to_jiffies(). This is because msecs_to_jiffies() is actually intended for device drivers to calculate timeout value. This means we don't need to take the max of the timeout and "1" since the timeout will always be > 0 ms (we add 20 ms of slop). - uart_fifo_timeout_ms() returns "unsigned int" but we leave uart_fifo_timeout() returning "unsigned long". This matches the types of msecs_to_jiffies().
