wait: add wait_event_killable_timeout()

These are the few pending fixes I have queued up for v4.13-final.  One
is a a generic regression fix for recursive loops on kmod and the other
one is a trivial print out correction.

During the v4.13 development we assumed that recursive kmod loops were
no longer possible.  Clearly that is not true.  The regression fix makes
use of a new killable wait.  We use a killable wait to be paranoid in
how signals might be sent to modprobe and only accept a proper SIGKILL.
The signal will only be available to userspace to issue *iff* a thread
has already entered a wait state, and that happens only if we've already
throttled after 50 kmod threads have been hit.

Note that although it may seem excessive to trigger a failure afer 5
seconds if all kmod thread remain busy, prior to the series of changes
that went into v4.13 we would actually *always* fatally fail any request
which came in if the limit was already reached.  The new waiting
implemented in v4.13 actually gives us *more* breathing room -- the wait
for 5 seconds is a wait for *any* kmod thread to finish.  We give up and
fail *iff* no kmod thread has finished and they're *all* running
straight for 5 consecutive seconds.  If 50 kmod threads are running
consecutively for 5 seconds something else must be really bad.

Recursive loops with kmod are bad but they're also hard to implement
properly as a selftest without currently fooling current userspace tools
like kmod [1].  For instance kmod will complain when you run depmod if
it finds a recursive loop with symbol dependency between modules as such
this type of recursive loop cannot go upstream as the modules_install
target will fail after running depmod.

These tests already exist on userspace kmod upstream though (refer to
the testsuite/module-playground/mod-loop-*.c files).  The same is not
true if request_module() is used though, or worst if aliases are used.

Likewise the issue with 64-bit kernels booting 32-bit userspace without
a binfmt handler built-in is also currently not detected and proactively
avoided by userspace kmod tools, or kconfig for all architectures.
Although we could complain in the kernel when some of these individual
recursive issues creep up, proactively avoiding these situations in
userspace at build time is what we should keep striving for.

Lastly, since recursive loops could happen with kmod it may mean
recursive loops may also be possible with other kernel usermode helpers,
this should be investigated and long term if we can come up with a more
sensible generic solution even better!

This patch (of 3):

This wait is similar to wait_event_interruptible_timeout() but only
accepts SIGKILL interrupt signal.  Other signals are ignored.
