[patch 12/26] char/istallion: replace schedule_timeout() with msleep_interruptible()

[janitor@sternwelten.at]

Any comments would be appreciated. I'm not sure if I did the desired
thing here, as I got rid of stli_delay() completely. After the
msleep_interruptible() replacement, stli_delay() would only be used in
one place. I'm not sure which way is preferred (the original or mine)
regarding the second change, therefore.

Description: Use msleep_interruptible() instead of stli_delay() to
guarantee the task delays as expected. Removed the definition /
prototype of stli_delay() as it was only called in one other place,
where I made the direct change to
set_current_state()/schedule_timeout().
