Add down_timeout and change ACPI to use it
ACPI currently emulates a timeout for semaphores with calls to down_trylock and sleep. This produces horrible behaviour in terms of fairness and excessive wakeups. Now that we have a unified semaphore implementation, adding a real down_trylock is almost trivial. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>
