Adds 3 new completion API calls, which are a straightforward extension of the current APIs: int wait_for_completion_interruptible(struct completion *x); unsigned long wait_for_completion_timeout(struct completion *x, unsigned long timeout); unsigned long wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout( struct completion *x, unsigned long timeout); This enables the conversion of more semaphore-using code to completions. There is code that cannot be converted right now (and is forced to use semaphores) because these primitives are missing. Thomas Gleixner has a bunch of patches to make use of them.
