Subject: [PATCH] wireless: ipw2100: fix timeout bug - always evaluated to 0

commit: commit 2c86c275015c ("Add ipw2100 wireless driver.") introduced 
HW_PHY_OFF_LOOP_DELAY (HZ / 5000) which always evaluated to 0. Clarified
by Stanislav Yakovlev <stas.yakovlev@...il.com> that it should be 50
milliseconds thus fixed up to msecs_to_jiffies(50).

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

Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_IPW2100=m
(with a few buildwarnings in ipw2100.c though not related to this patch)

Patch is against 4.1-rc7 (localversion-next is -next-20150615)
