event API conformance testing with coccinelle spatches are being
used to locate API usage inconsistencies this triggert with:
./drivers/gpu/drm/armada/armada_overlay.c:153
        incorrect check for negative return

Return type of wait_event_timeout is signed long not int and the
return type is >=0 always thus the negative check was effectively
ignoring the timeout event - this looks like a bug.
An appropriately named variable of type long is inserted and the
call fixed up as well as the negative return check changed to detect
the timeout event.

The calling side seems to assume 0 as success and <0 as error so 
returning -ETIME should be fine here.

Patch was compile tested with imx_v6_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_DRM_ARMADA=m

Patch is against 4.1-rc7 (localversion-next is -next-20150609)
