Subject: [PATCH v2] libata: fixup wait_for_completion_timeout return handling

return type of wait_for_completion_timeout is unsigned long not int. The
return variable is renamed to reflect its use and the type adjusted to
unsigned long.

Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@...dl.org>

v2: rename of variable to make the timeout condition clear
    as requested by Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org>

Patch was only compile tested with x86_64_defconfig
(implies CONFIG_ATA=y)

Patch is against 3.19.0 (localversion-next is -next-20150210)
