Hi,

Re-send of a patch from January 24, 2005, adding Jens this time.

Thanks,
Nish

Description: Change the delay logic of swimiop_eject() to use
msleep_interruptible() and time_before(). Rather than depend on the
number of iterations of the loop for timing accuracy, I rely on the
current value of jiffies relative to a static timeout (end_jiffies).
