[PATCH] wan: dscc4: use msecs_to_jiffies for conversions

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Sat Jun 06 2015 - 04:49:43 EST


API compliance scanning with coccinelle flagged:
./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:1036:1-33:
WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent
./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:554:2-34:
WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent
./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:599:2-34:
WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent

Numeric constants passed to schedule_timeout_*() make the effective
timeout HZ dependent which does not seem to be the intent here.
Fixed up by converting the constant to jiffies with msecs_to_jiffies()

As the intended timeout is not documented and msecs_to_jiffies(10) may
be a factor 10 off from constant 10, this needs to be checked by
someone that knows the details of this driver, in any case it should
be passed in a HZ independent way.

Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_WAN=y
CONFIG_HDLC=m, CONFIG_DSCC4=m

Patch is against 4.1-rc6 (localversion-next is -next-20150605)
