[openib-general] [PATCH] IB/mthca: Convert FW commands to use wait_for_completion_timeout()

The kernel has had wait_for_completion_timeout() for a long time now.
mthca should use it to handle FW commands timing out, instead of
implementing the same thing in a much more complicated way by using
wait_for_completion() along with a timer that does complete().

Anyone see anything wrong with this cleanup?
