Subject: [patch 04/14] ftape/fdc-io: insert set_current_state() before schedule_timeout()




Inserts a set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) before the
schedule_timeout() call. Without this change, after the first iteration of the
loop, schedule_timeout() will not only return immediately, but the loop will
break, as the conditional will no longer be satisfied. In fact, this conditional
makes little sense given the workings of schedule_timeout. The timeout variable
is ignored, as well, and I'm fairly certain that it should be included in the
loop conditional. That way, if the timeout expires before a signal hits, -ETIME
will be returned by fdc_interrupt_wait() instead of -EINTR.
