schedule_timeout_* takes a timeout in jiffies but the code currently is
passing in a constant which makes this timeout HZ dependent, so pass it
through msecs_to_jiffies() to fix this up.

Problem found by coccinelle spatch
The current wait time can vary by a factor 10 depending on the HZ
setting chose, which does not seem reasonable here.
The below patch sets the timeout to 100ms - it is though not clear
if this is the intent or if it should be longer/shorter as it is not
clear what HZ setting was assumed during design and used for testing.
This needs an ack by someone who knows the device and can confirm that
100ms is reasonable to wait for completion of in-flight requests.
Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_LIQUIDIO_VF=m
Patch is against 4.9.0 (localversion-next is -next-20161216)
