Initialize the module parameters, read_timeout and write_timeout once in init(). Module parameters can only be set once and cannot be modified later, so we don't need to evaluate them again when passing the parameters to wait_event_interruptible_timeout(). Convert datatype of {read,write}_timeout from 'int' to 'long int' because implicit conversion of 'long int' to 'int' in statement '{read,write}_timeout = MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT' results in an overflow. Change format specifier for {read,write}_timeout from %i to %li. Reviewed-by: Fabio M.
