Some indentation would be better if, for example, 0 will be kept on
previous line.

So, what I would see if no one objects is patch series of two:
1) introduction of new API
2) removing old one.

It will benefit for easier review and any potential code anthropologist.

Extra white spaces.

So, would it be better to support interrupts here and return a
corresponding error code to the user?

Besides that question, readability might be better if you use
temporary variable and pack above on one line:

unsigned long to = timeout;

} while (count && (to = ...(to)));

Links to the functions are func()-like. Please check kernel doc howto:s.

checkpatch.pl has integrated spellchecker AFAIU.
Moreover, can you try harder to make that description shorter?

This doesn't belong to the change.
