Chris,

I think I am lost here. Could you please help me understand what are we missing here?
Completion also uses the wait_queue and each thread that want to wait for a event waits on it.
And on IRQ arrival through complete_all we are marking the completion->done and waking up all the thread sleeping at completion wait_queue.

Are you suggesting wait_event_timeout as we have in intel_dp_aux_wait_done?

Thanks,
--Ram
