wait_for_completion_timeout() returns unsigned long (0 on timeout or
remaining jiffies) not int - so this type error allows for a
theoretically int overflow - though not in this case where TIMEOUT is
only HZ*2). To fix this type inconsistency the completion is wrapped
into the if() rather than introducing an additional unsigned long
variable. 

Along with fixing this type inconsistency the fall-through if is
consolidated to a single if-block.

V3: As requested by Sven Van Asbroeck <thesve...@gmail.com> cleanup
    the commit message to make it more clear what the impact of the
    proposed change is....lets see if this is any better.

V2: The original patch's logic was wrong as it was skipping the 
    fall-through if so using the fix proposed by Sven Van Asbroeck 
    <thesve...@gmail.com> - This solution also eliminates the need
    to introduce an additional variable - Thanks !

Patch was compile-tested with. x86_64_defconfig + OF=y, FIELDBUS_DEV=m,
HMS_ANYBUSS_BUS=m
(with an unrelated sparse warnings (cast to restricted __be16))

Patch is against 5.1-rc6 (localversion-next is next-20190426)
