wait_for_completion_timeout() can not return a <0 value.
So simplify the logic and remove dead code.

-ERESTARTSYS can not be returned by do_wait_for_common() for tasks with
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, which is the case for wait_for_completion_timeout()

This code is ran during modprobe/insmod. We would like to allow the user
to interrupt (Ctrl+C) the probing if something is going wrong with the
device.

So, the real issue is wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() should
be used instead of wait_for_completion_timeout().

(By reading this code again, it also seems the test "if (err <= 0)" is
useless)

Hmmm, not that clear.

See commit 01088cd143a9.

Let me know if you prefer this patch as-is or if 01088cd143a9 should be 
reverted.

Good catch. So this patch is correct.
