Hi Jens,

It's useful if user want a short timeout when a disk doesn't work normally.
Would you give some comments for this patch,
I'm fine with the patch, in fact I've posted a similar/identical one in
the past but just never got around to merging it. I think we should
expose the value in seconds or msecs, however, not in jiffies. That
makes it hard to use for people.

So modify it to do a msecs_to_jiffies() on the value passed in.
