[PATCH 1/2] ntb_transport: make DMA_OUT_RESOURCE_TO HZ independent

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Mon Aug 22 2016 - 12:49:32 EST


schedule_timeout_* takes a timeout in jiffies but the code currently is
passing in a constant which makes this timeout HZ dependent, so pass it
through msecs_to_jiffies() to fix this up.

Problem found by coccinelle script

The below patch sets the timeout to 50ms - not clear what HZ setting was
assumed during design/testing, so this needs an ack by someone who knows
the driver and can confirm that 50ms is reasonable to wait on retries.

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_NTB=m,
CONFIG_NTB_TRANSPORT=m

Patch is against 4.8.0-rc2 (localversion-next is -next-20160822)
