If we are testing if a reservation object's fences have been
signaled with timeout=0 (non-blocking), we need to pass 0 for
timeout to dma_fence_wait_timeout().

Plus bonus spelling correction.

One should ask if we should just fix the interface to stop returning
incorrect results (stop "correcting" a completion with 0 jiffies remaining
as 1). A timeout can be distinguished by -ETIME (or your pick of errno).
perhaps -EBUSY, if we go that route (although maybe it should be a
follow-on patch, this one is suitable for backport to stable/lts if
one should so choose..)

I think current approach was chosen to match schedule_timeout() and
other such functions that take a timeout in jiffies.  Not making a
judgement on whether that is a good or bad reason..

We intentionally switched away from that to be in sync with the wait_event_* interface.

Returning 1 when a function with a zero timeout succeeds is actually quite common in the kernel.

Christian.
