o SD/MMC card timeouts can be very high. So avoid busy-waiting,
using the scheduler. Calculate all timeouts in jiffies units,
because this will give us the correct sign when to involve
the scheduler.

This patch was discussed on lkml. Some where concerned about
performance loss, but no performance loss was visible in real-
life tests, and nobody came up with a better solution. And it
was clear that a busy waiting of several 100 of ms has to be
ended.
