This patch fixes two issues: * return type of wait_for_completion_timeout is unsigned long not int, rather than adding a dedicated variable the wait_for_completion_timeout is moved into the condition directly * the timeout of wait_for_completion_timeout is in jiffies but the value being passed was a unsigned long not converted to jiffies and thus was dependent on the HZ settings which is probably not what you want. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxxx> --- Note that the timeout value changed very significantly as wait was initially in the range of 2 milliseconds, so this converts to 1 jiffies for HZ < 1000 and 2 jiffies for HZ=1000 - thus the timeout value changed by 3 orders of magnitude. This needs a review by someone that knows the details of the hardware to judge if this change is ok - in any case the timeout passed should go through usecs_to_jiffies or msecs_to_jiffis and to ensure it is no longer HZ dependent.
