True, but I think the original is just OK.

Any suggestion on how to make the thing better?

wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout is a fairly long
identifier with multiple long arguments.

It's as if it should be written here as

 		ret = wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(fifo->write_queue,
								ioread32(fifo->base_addr + XLLF_TDFV_OFFSET) >= words_to_write,
								fifo->write_queue_lock,
								write_timeout >= 0 ? msecs_to_jiffies(write_timeout) : MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT);

where the longest is way over 80 chars, (140?) but I simply don't care
because it's just that much more readable for me.
