Uninlined in the latest version (see below).

Well, I was considering doing that, but I tried to make this new
interface a little more sane. I don't think we need to worry about
signedness of the parameter any more (and thus we don't need to consider
returning a negative value). Calling schedule_timeout() underneath
schedule_timeout_msecs() will require us to do those conditional checks;
I guess this isn't criticial in a sleeping path.
Also, I would need to make some modifications (not critical, really), so
that MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT_MSECS would map 1:1 to MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT
(which is in jiffies).
But I'm happy to change this, also done below -- does that map better to
what you were thinking?

Done as well below.
Thanks,

Description: Add millisecond wrapper for schedule_timeout(),
schedule_timeout_msecs(). Add wrappers for interruptible/uninterruptible
schedule_timeout_msecs() callers.
