Patch 1 of 1
This patch implements wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout in the
scan_thread function to ensure it will exit cleanly during rmmod. Calling
complete in cciss_remove_one caused a race condition. Using the wait with a
timeout seems to work around that but it does fire the thread. The overhead
should be minimal.
Changelog:
Replace wait_for_completion_interruptible with
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout in scan_thread().
Use 5 second timeout value to avoid race.
