[091/146] ips: use interruptible waits in ips-monitor

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Jun 01 2011 - 04:14:31 EST


2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a3424216e4935221fdaa5ca3c26e024f11297164 upstream.

This is what I intended to do since:
1) the driver handles variable waits just fine, and
2) interruptible waits aren't reported as load in the load avg.
